“Trusting someone was like holding a little water in your cupped hands - it was so easy to spill the water, and you could never get it back.”
“For a cup brimful of sweet water cannot spill even one drop of bitter water, however suddenly jolted.”
“If I offer you a glass of water, and bring back a cup of ice, I’m trying to teach you patience. And also that sometimes you get ice with no water, and later you’ll get water with no ice. Ah, but that’s life, no? ”
“To believe, perhaps you had to cease looking for explanations and instead hold the little thing in your hands as long as your were able before it slipped like water between your fingers.”
“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.”
“Love? Love is like holding water in your hands. You might have it for a time, but it escapes, leaving you with nothing.”
