To have a mind like water
Its more of a practical idea
A mental and emotional state
Where you can be clear and create
Respond freely whenever you wish
You see if your attention is being grabbed by thoughts
Its a way of just letting them flow
So your free to place your attention
Where you want when you want
And water has that balance
That dynamic ability not to overreact or underreact
So you can throw a stone into a lake
And water will absorb that energy perfectly and appropriately
Knowing exactly what to do without thinking
So to have a mind like water
Its a method of being
Enabling you to respond appropriately to any given situation
And when you allow your thoughts to just by flow by like water
The mind is empty
Ready for anything
Open to everything
Open to fresh perceptions
Clear to create
Clear to respond freely
Clear to think with clarity
But stay firmly rooted in the reality of the present moment
