Be-like-water Quote by Soroosh Shahrivar

“In a river, the water flows more slowly near the banks and faster in the middle but it still flows. So forget the fish. Forget the salmon. Be the river. Sometimes you move slow and at other times you move fast. But be alive. Go live your life.” quote by Soroosh Shahrivar
