 The way of the simpleton is like the way of water -- always going down... this essential movement is a great virtue -- and the beginning of wisdom... This way really isn't a secret although it can seem so because it is mostly hidden from the view of those in a hurry "up"... Sometimes in ages past, the ancients would say, "You must become as a water-strider. Watch and learn how to rest in the flow and how to move only when the moment is right... become one with the water: breathe as it breathes, serve as it serves." This is how the ancients viewed the Universe... Why should you bother reading this? I could say because I know you are not satisfied, but really, it is for a much better reason...
