Was once asked with grave significance:  “How do you keep a fish from flopping away?  You hold it like this.”  An open palm was displayed, signifying the importance of not being too controlling.  I felt uneasy with the subsequent weighty nod, as if that closed the issue.  Later, I learned the importance of seeing beyond stock, spoon-fed answers that limit the creative potential.

Because another way to keep a fish from escaping is by spearing it.

    very true! That’s for the reminder to let and let it be.

    I was told that if you put a frog in boiling water, it jumps out of it immediately. But if you put it in cold water and slowly heat it, the frog will keep sitting in it until he is boiled to death. I tried it once. And do you know what happened? Whether the water was hot or cold, the frog immediately jumped out of the pan each and every time.
