1. Water is the root of all life on this planet, falling generously from the heavens above and flowing along gently on the surface of our rocky world. With a unique sense of tastelessness, water symbolizes a mind at peace. Not bitter, never sweet, nor sour; the taste of water is the gratefulness and appreciation you have for the water and the life that a gulp brings. Pay attention to the taste of water, and rightly appreciate it for the life it brings.

 2. Notice how water flows along a river covered by a grey bed of boulders? Rocks and boulders of all sizes make up the riverbed, constantly trying to impede the flow; however, water effortlessly glides along the rough crevices and always advances forward. True happiness moves in the same manner, flowing through us regardless of our stresses, the snags of our lives, relationship problems, and our disappointment; always flowing forward. Let your happiness glide over those rocks like water. 

 3. Everyday around the world people bask in the peace and tranquility that the touch of water brings with each coming day. Some people use a bucket, some have a fancy shower, and others jump in the ocean; some do it in the morning, others at night; yet the feeling it brings is all the same: pure tranquility. Only our lover will ever know the gentle ways in which water touches our body. Water, a shapeless body of life changes into the shape of the body itself, always unassuming and the places that we come to define as our flaws. Let water glide along your body into the gradual realization that if water can touch our insecurities and our curves so peacefully, we can do the same and come to accept all that we despise about ourselves.
