Flowing Water
Hydroelectric energy is power made by moving water. “Hydro” comes from the Greek word for water.
Spillway on the Bonneville Dam
The Bonneville Dam, on the Columbia River, has provided electricity to millions of residents of Washington and Oregon since 1938.
The first U.S. hydroelectric power plant was built on the Fox River in 1882 in Appleton, Wisconsin. This plant powered two paper mills and one home.
Water was Bruce's metaphor for life, always moving, always changing, always flowing, and you want to be right in the flow of it. “You can never step in the same water twice, my friend. Like flowing water, life is perpetual movement.
There is nothing fixed.” Bruce Lee
What is a metaphor for the ocean?
A wave from the ocean rose up like an arm, reaching to the shore. Metaphor: The ocean lifted its arm to touch the shore. Implied comparison: A wave from the ocean rose up before it crashed down on the shore, and looked like an arm. In the Old Testament, flowing or “living” water stands for God's faithful and lasting provision for his people. ... The spring (or fountain) and the rain surrounded the chosen people with verdure—but only, according to a biblical refrain for God's interventions, “at the right time.”
What does water symbolize in the Bible?
Water popularly represents life. ... Christ walked on water, and transmuted it into WINE, thus these acts can be seen as a transcendence of the earthly condition. Christians are baptized with or in water, symbolizing a purification of the soul, and an admission into the faith.
John 7:38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, ‘From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.’”
Proberbs 7:14 The beginning of strife is like letting out water,
So abandon the quarrel before it breaks out.
