Being in harmony with nature is what I like most about Daoism! Thanks for sharing insights from your journey. And I also like the lessons we can learn from the flexible nature of water.

Reminds me of another Chuang Tzu’s story — of him seeing an old man falling at a waterfall yet coming out safely downstream. “Plunging in with the whirl, I come out with the swirl. I accommodate myself to the water, not the water to me”. And of course with all things, it’s dependent on how we wisely think, act, accommodate based on the situations.

You got it! I like this story. It makes the point of swimming with the tide. But I find the hardest part is to be in the process and stay on the course.

So true. The hardest part is while we are in it when one is blinded with flustered emotions.
