Water is life's mater and matrix,

 mother and medium. 

There is no life without water.

~ Wendell Berry

 

Another Natchez Trace picture taken in 2006 with my Kodak Z740 digital camera

 

Nothing in the world is more flexible

and yielding than water. 

Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong,

none can withstand it,

because they have no way to change it. 

So the flexible overcome the adamant,

the yielding overcome the forceful. 

Everyone knows this, but no one can do it.

~ Lao Tuz

 

 

When despair for the world grows in me

and I awake in the night at the least sound

in fear of what my life

and my childrens lives may be,

I go and lie down where the wood drake

rests in his beauty on the water,

and the great heron feeds.

I come into the peace of wild things

who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief.

I come into the presence of still water.

And I feel above me the day-blind stars

waiting with their light. 

For a time I rest in the grace of the world,

and am free.

~Wendell Berry

 

 

Be careful what you water your dreams with.  Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream.  Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success.  Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem into an opportunity for success.  Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream.
