Like Water

10 months ago (Edited)

This is the second or third time that I've run into these Ducks at the local lagoon we have officially named "The Pool of Pippin."

It's a river mouth that runs into the sea. A 30 second walk and you're there. Just across the beach.

They're not supposed to be there. I mean... talk about ducks out of water. Or in water but definitely not in their natural habitat. I wonder who they escaped from?

Regardless, they're wonderful to see. I reckon because it's a surprise.

On the day I took this footage, in particular, they were revelling obviously in their swim. Loving every minute! Their enjoyment was palpable.

Yes. I did join them a few short minutes later.

Who could resist?

“Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash.
Be water, my friend.”
