Like A Water

I am in love with this quote from Bruce Lee about considering yourself of being like a water. The quote teaches us to be able to adapt to every situation, don't be too stiff and sometimes all we can do is to enable ourselves to be in the right position at the current condition. Just like a water, it'll always become the shape of its place. Nonetheless, we become like a water so we won't be stuck in a certain place we don't want to be at. Here's the complete quote:

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.”
