Drink from this fountain. Bathe in the waters from this fountain. Let these waters wash away your unsettled thoughts. Let this water cleanse your mind, your body, your spirit.
Simply choose what you allow to influence you. If the news upsets your balance, shut it off. Be mindful of what you are ingesting, what you are seeing, what you hear. What you choose to entertain yourself with matters. Go low or go high, it matters.
Rise above the gruff and grumble. Do not let the mood of others sour your actions. When you lead with love and civility you rule the day. You give without acknowledgment, without expectation. Give freely and what pours in will astound you.
When you begin to recognize that all around you is fluid, always in movement, you stop going upstream. You stop fighting an endless fight. You begin to find your surrender, your center. You find your ease, your flow. You drink from your own fountain. You bathe in your own glorious, powerful waters.
Bask in it. Delight in it, for your well runneth over.
