Dear reader, can I actually get three posts out of the Alaskan Dingbat's comment about dead fish?!
Yes I can!
Flow, what is it good for? Well, I remember reading Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience in the 90's too. And it was one of those profound, eye-opening experiences.
And I didn't even need to take off my pants.
So anyway, back to the dead fish thing. Going with the flow, being in the flow is an optimal experience. It's what I crave. And I can heartily recommend it to all you truth-seekers out there.
So yes, let's learn the lessons of the dead fish: glassy-eyed, slack-jawed, white belly pointing up to the sky. Do not struggle - surrender, let go, give it up, ride the slipstream.
And just what does a dead fish do? RISE UP to the surface to meet a new reality!
Of course, there's also a downside - a dead fish is stinky and of course, dead! But hey, no one promised us a rose garden! Viva la dead fish!
