You know, I've quoted this a few times, most recently as a comment to an LJ friend. I really like it. It's a great gift of wisdom from Bruce Lee that is my own little personal reminder of balance, and it just so happens it has to do with a very personal spiritual experience, too. So I decided to share it here and it will also replace my antiquated text on my home page.
"Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round 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." - Bruce Lee
