Be Like Water My Friend

"Be formless... shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle; it becomes the bottle. You put it into a teapot; it becomes the teapot. Water can flow, and it can crash. Be like water, my friend" ...Bruce Lee


My life right now has been Topsy turvy. Many ups, downs, smiles, & .frowns. If it is one thing I have come to realize though it is this. Life, for whatever reason, will not go the way you want it. Even when good things happen more often then not it is in a way that we don't expect. Nevertheless whatever hardships we may endear only builds stronger character and resolve.

I was talking to a friend of mine a few days ago and he told me something VERY INSPIRATIONAL! He told me about this book he had been reading about Bruce Lee and his philosophy. He went deeper into explaining it and it made sense that the philosophy Bruce Lee was explaining can be used in any situation a person can think of. It was then that I realized this was an important and groundbreaking discovery about life. Appreciate that Morgan.

Basically what I'm writing about is how Bruce and Morgan both agree on being like water. Water is impervious to pain yet it can cause massive devastation. It is a natural and abundant resource. Gentle and calm and yet rough and dangerous all at once. It moves and adapts to any and every situation therefor making a person that thinks like this quick on their feet and able to relax and go with the flow.

I have a new outlook on life and thats why I'm sharing it with you. You can read this and shrug it off as something this 21 year old guy is just rambling on about, or you can begin to open your mind to more then what you've been taught. Grow spiritually and mentally.

Just remember, "Whatever happens, happens." ...Spike Spiegel

I have FAITH in YOU...

"As a hurdle you must overcome, I'll always be there for you. Even if you hate me...that's what being a big brother is" ...Uchiha Itachi


We all have loved ones that we care for and cherish. Some have family members, others friends, some spouses, and the fortunate have a combination if not all. We all have a beginning, middle, and an end. The length of it however varies from person to person, but the fact that we go through this connects us all together.

In life we all have a purpose. A reason for being here. Everyone must go on their on journey of life to find out what that reason is. Some however do so in a manner by cutting off ties with the ones they love. For whatever reason they do this is a choice made solely by them, but it hurts the ones they leave behind.

We might try to reach out a helping hand or try and fix the situation as best that we see fit, but things have a way of happening for a reason. Bad things happen sometimes because we allow them to happen. We're always given a choice, it just so happens that human nature picks the worse of the two choices more often then not. It is up to the individual that makes these mistakes to rectify them and set things right, whatever the consequences may be.


Others that cant see what their doing that refuse to acknowledge their going down the wrong path will have to learn on their own. A person can get sick trying to save someone that isn't even trying to help themselves. I'll never give up on you. I just wanted you to know that, but I refuse to keep giving you the same advice when you won't even listen to me. Thats why I've chosen to show you tough love. I have faith in you that one day you'll make the right decisions. Hopefully it'll be before the things you do create an environment for you that is irreversible.


I love you
