thoughts as water

I find it helpful to think with metaphor
and if thoughts are water, always traveling to the bottom of things
then rigid thinking acts like ice with the potential of breaking that which contains the water

water cleans itself through movement
do the ways i think accomplish this?

with movement, with truth seeking, with humility each drop of water on the planet carves a journey back to the ocean, to evaporate once again to chart another journey home.
