Escape to the Water

“I have dreamed in my life,

dreams that have stayed with me

ever after, and changed my ideas;

they have gone through and

through me, like wine and water,

and altered the color of my mind.”

~ Emily Brontë

Clear Your Mind

“Like water, which can clearly

mirror the sky and the trees

only so long as its surface is

undisturbed, the mind can only

reflect the true image of the Self

when it is tranquil and wholly relaxed.”
