I’m a water nerd. I drink it every morning, and I will never say no to a chance to go to the ocean. My kids are always being told to drink water, they’re both strong swimmers, and we have a huge, irrigated garden. We make whatever time we can to go to the lake or walk by the bay. The first image you see on my home page is a portrait of someone by the water. Heck, my star sign even has “aqua” in it.
Water is a literal big deal in our life.. in everyone’s life. Water is life, and duality, and a lesson in the power of adaptability. And humans have such a connectedness to it. How could we not, given it formed us?
Water has so many lessons: the idea of intentional use of oneself, one’s strength, patience, and power. The idea that we can be a force or even just a trickle, depending on what life calls us to be. Adaptability- truth in what you are, what you can be, how you can sustain life, and how you can flow.
See? I love it. I love that long ago two hydrogens and an oxygen became bffs. That this connection has sustained so much beauty and insane dynamism for millennia. Amazing.
