mummy doesn’t care
because water is soft
and weak
but
by not resisting
and allowing nature take control
water overcomes even the hardest thing
from chapter 78 of the Daodejing

water flows without an agenda
without going around helping people
water is a help to everyone
it doesn’t compete
it has no bias
so it makes decisions easily
from chapter 8 of the Daodejing

water
the sage isn’t doing things for himself
so people want him around
selflessness gives him his staying power
