A fable says,
if you put a frog 
in a pot of cold water
and slowly heat the 
water, the frog will 
adjust to the water 
temperature. ... 
However, if you 
suddenly throw a frog 
into very hot water,
it will immediately 
jump out 
and save its life.

 

Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall, it will not stop you. But water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that. Remember you are half water. If you can't go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.

In the end, we´ll all become stories.
