Japanese Proverb

I heard this proverb today: “If you wait by the river long enough, you’ll see the body of your enemy float by.”

I've always said that I believe in destiny and that if you are a good person who treats others kindly you will be treated so in kind.  I found this proverb to be an interesting take on that.

Chakra

A wonderful yogi inspirator once said "When we go with the flow of life, we connect to our second Chakra, Swadhisthana Chakra, and the element of water. We can learn a lot from water. When a large rock or obstacle is thrown into a stream of water, the water finds new avenues to flow around it and over it. As we encounter obstacles on our path we too can find creative avenues to explore so that we may continue on our path.

An epiphany

Definition: a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience.


Today I had one.  To make something happen, you have to start the wheels in motion and not leave your destiny in anothers hands.  It may be difficult but change is never easy.  However change is a good thing.  It keeps us moving forward, building momentum for the next great thing.
