Ripple in still water,
When there is no pebble tossed,
Nor wind to blow.

Very nice shot and story there – love the ripple effect and (GD)
WATER
The supreme good is like water,
which nourishes all things without trying to.
It is content with the low places that people disdain.
Thus it is like the Tao.
In dwelling, live close to the ground.
In thinking, keep to the simple.
In conflict, be fair and generous.
In governing, don’t try to control.
In work, do what you enjoy.
In family life, be completely present
When you are content to be simply yourself
and don’t compare or compete,
everybody will respect you.
from the tao te ching by lao tzu, as translated by stephen mitchell
