Flow

I’ve been watching the river a lot lately.

Trying to mirror its flow;

in my movements, in my interactions, in my state of mind.

The river’s an element of motion.

It moves with the land,

shifting form in order to adapt with its environment.

Constantly changing, constantly evolving.

It’s a seamless stream of action and reaction.

To flourish and sustain its form, it stays in a condition of perpetual flow.

Powerful, seamless, and cyclical in nature.

Water in its entirety is a physical representation that no two moments can be the same

and that we live in a sphere of movement.

To enter flow state is to enter that sphere.

Flow state is a level of consciousness we reach when what we’re doing becomes completely instinctive.

A fluid mind, body, soul connection.

We enter a place where motion and creativity become organic.

Like the river, a human in flow moves with ease.

When we find that ease, the rawest form of self expression reveals itself.
