Water Philosophy for Stepmoms
Integrity. Commitment to Excellence. Stubbornly Optimistic!
“Water” by Peggy Nolan©
“Nothing in the world is more flexible and yielding than water. Yet when it attacks the firm and the strong, none can withstand it, because they have no way to change it. So the flexible overcome the adamant, the yielding overcome the forceful. Everyone knows this, but no one can do it.” ~ Lao Tzu
Where can you become flexible in your life? What can you yield to or let go of? Where can you be like water?

Angelia – you are perfect just as you are
