Swim with the current

In the life of each of us, the question arose, and more than once, concerning being like everyone else, not resisting, going with the flow, choosing caution, or showing will, taking a risk and swimming against the current.
A person is forced to fight both with reality for his freedom and with himself, as he is torn between duty and desire. Pure
will is the only thing that can be thought without restrictions and, therefore, is the basis of freedom.
Freedom is connected with duty, and duty is connected with awareness.
Self-gathering can be interpreted as focusing on the present, the ability to relate to and agree with it. The Chinese thinker and strategist Sun Tzu has a wonderful thought: "Don't swim against the current. Don't go with the flow. Go where you need to go." Sometimes people give this expression a negative color, saying that swimming with the current is not necessary to make efforts, but you can do nothing and, therefore, submit. Doing nothing means to get rid of the desires, aspirations, associated with this
tension and suffering. Just go with the flow of fate and at the same time be an observer, aware of everything that is happening both in the external and in the internal world. But it is also possible that to go with the flow is to be in harmony with yourself, to find your destiny and the current’ll guide along the best path.
