QUICK NOTES….Our lives are complex and simple at the same time. From the day we are born we move forward, but our progress is rarely linear. Life ebbs and flows at its own pace. When we expect to move forward, suddenly we recede. Much like the ocean tides and waves share commonality, so do our perceptions of purpose and growth. Each is interdependent, sharing energy and movement but independent because they are acted upon external factors requiring different form.
Bruce Lee once said, ““You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.” In life and martial arts the ability to adapt and flow is synonymous with thriving.
Students who begin a martial arts journey rarely follow a strictly linear path. There are days when growth is stymied by physical, intellectual, and even spiritual road blocks. How quickly we recover is often based on our ability to adapt. Like shapeless water our ability to react is predicated on our ability to calmly redirect force and morph response to circumstances.
