Picture A Day || The Adaptivity of Water

avatar

Be water my friend. A well known martial artist, celebrity and philosopher of life said this. Water adapts, water becomes one with its surroundings, whether it's the shape, the colors it shines back at us or simply the images and sceneries it reflects. Just like water we should be adaptive in life. Roll with the punches. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. It's not a coincidence that so many popular life sayings refer to this concept of standing back up, when you get knocked down, or when your situation changes ever so slightly. So, be water my friend, and challenge the world.

This picture was taken with a OnePlus 8T and was not manually edited by me. What the camera software on smartphones does nowadays is another point. It was taken at a remote spot a few kilometers behind the only airport on Suriname.

What do you see in the image? Will you be water?

I know my favorite author speaks of water with much emphasis than anyone else.

He said, "never bet on stability and lasting order, everything changes". He continued, "the best way to protect yourself is to be as fluid and as formless as water"

And I am happy you've reminded me of this advice today. This is the identity we need to hold unto as humans. No matter what happens, we should learn to change with the times instead of getting stuck in the past.

Cheers 🥂🥂

This is great advice indeed. Some people are so stuck in a fixed path they have planned out, that they forget that its not about the roads you take, but about the destination and goal.

Yeah, it's always a means to an end, and not the end. Everyone has to understand this, seriously

Thanks! The sun was also high up in the sky at that point, emphasizing the clearness of the water even more.
