Flow of Action

As regards the quietude of the sage, he is not quiet because quietness is good. He is quiet because the multitude of things cannot disrupt his quietude. When water is still, one's eyebrows are reflected in it. A skilled carpenter uses it in a level to obtain  measurement. If still water is so clear, how much more are the mental faculties. The mind of a sage is the mirror of heaven and earth in which all things are reflected.  - Chuange-tsu

How would you use water as a metaphor of flow.

"I am not a thing - a noun. I seem to be a verb."  - Buckminster Fuller

Let your identity flow. Find the action. Revise. Invent. Progress.
