The highest good is like water. Water benefits all things and does not contend. It dwells in places that people disdain, and so comes close to the Way. In choosing where to dwell, be good; in the heart, be deep; in giving, be kind; in speech, be trustworthy; in governance, be orderly; in deeds, be capable; in action, be timely. Because it does not contend, it is without blame. The words of the ancient sages, examined closely, actually run through our entire lives, from birth to death. Reborn once, Li Yi had too many memories, regrets, and missed opportunities. He wanted more of the people he remembered regretting and missing to enter his heart, or to enter someone else's heart himself, leaving behind a smile and a blessing.
