Marblehead Posted September 9, 2009 Well, yeah, without water there would be no life on this planet. That's a given. I suppose that the ancients understood this as well and this is why water is such an important symbol in Taoism. Yeah, I acknowledge the importance of water and I suppose that this has something to do with the fact that I keep a fish pond outside. Yes, we are told to be like water. Sometimes we rest, other times we flow gently through the environment and still other times we are like the raging storm waves. When water is ready to move there is nothing that can stop it. And now, doing all this talking about water I have to go pee. Happy trails! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
