- minimising wetness while walking in the rain is the equivalent of
- being immersed in a river in which the minimum of force is exerted.
- in other words, going with the flow keeps you driest.
-
- unfortunately, where you want to go and where the river is going
- are usually disparate directions.
-
- which leads to the inevitable conclusion that staying driest in the
- rain is a profoundly anti-Taoist activity.
-
- or that Taoists in the rain get very wet and never arrive where
- they want to go.
