Summary

This quote highlights the idea of surrendering to a higher power and going with the natural flow of life in order to find wisdom and fulfillment. By using the metaphor of a river, the quote encourages us to emulate the behavior of the water, which effortlessly follows the current towards the ocean. Just as the water trustingly allows itself to be led, we too should trust our source (like the ocean) and follow its guidance. By doing so, we can lead a life that is aligned with our purpose and experience the fullest and happiest expression of ourselves.
