A Taoist story tells of an old man who accidentally fell into the river rapids leading to a high and dangerous
waterfall. Onlookers feared for
his life. Miraculously, he came out alive and unharmed downstream at the bottom
of the falls. People asked him how he managed to survive. "I accommodated myself
to the water, not the water to me.
Without thinking, I allowed myself to be shaped by it. Plunging into the swirl,
I came out with the swirl. This is how I survived."
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6
