Yep, another water metaphor. Sorry.
These waters of purpose drive to find their goal, but meet wall after canyon wall. A mind channeled — given direction but given constraints. The struggle, then, is whether to follow course or assault those walls. Should rain and wind be let loose to breach the levees? Burst these limits for the sake of unfettered expansion? Or drive onward, carving mighty furrows into that one worthy purpose?
Shallow lakes dry faster than deep rivers. Better a lasting journey than a short-lived sunburst.
