The paragraph about the sea resonates with me. I love his use of words like "dive, plunge, and vision". I love the way it feel to be fully in the water. It is such a weightless place. I never thought about god being like the sea. It is boyant and dark as well as constantly moving. I think my trips to the river this year are going to have new meaning.
Jason talked about the humility of the Tao. How it is like water, the softest thing on earth and yet the force that moves earth and dissolves rocks. Here I read the same thing. I hope to look at life through the vision of God like I am immersed in the softness of my creator, allowing it to dissolve all my firm resolutions.

I also had never thought of water that way until Jason talked about it like that. It tied in with our reading this week. I also liked what you said in your other post on Hugh. I actually love being under water. When I was a kid I used to hang out under water for as long as I could, come up for a breath, and then back down. I would do that for what seemed like hours.
