wolven7 | Strange Thoughts and Wu-Wei Recollections

So, in these days moving toward my birthday, I've been having stranger dreams, odd experiences, new and different opportunities presenting themselves, and so on.

The synchronicity of events and concepts pleases me, and makes me want to hold on to them, tightly. Have to resist that urge, because it's like Jell-O: It'll follow the lines and curves of whatever I shape for it, as long as I do it right. Stir, mix, prepare, and then Let It Cool. But once it's taken shape, it must be handled carefully, because, when you squeeze it? It oozes out between your fingers, leaving a sticky mess on your hands, and a sense of loss and regret.

And, if you don't like Jell-O, I'm sure I can think of something else that will fit the end of that analogy.

Anywho. The point is, to work with the current, to shape and be shaped, rather than try to fully push things where you want them to be. In the past I have tried to force too many interactions.

This year, until the party, I am endeavouring to be a master and servant of wu-wei. I will take the opportunities that I am given, I will work with them, as long as they are there, and I will let them leave, as they choose.

HOWEVER, just because I am in this river, and flowing as it needs, does not mean that I can't remind you of Rocks I've Seen.
