You can't push the river. You can jump in and float. You can grab a piece of driftwood, or build a raft, or buy a canoe and ride that thing. You can make it an adventure and shoot the rapids.
Sometimes it makes sense to sit on the shore and just watch that thing. As Dylan once sang: "Watching the River Flow."
The river will do what the river does, it will go where it goes. Maybe best to take a lesson. Flow. Flow like the river. And let it all just go.
