The Kung Fu Panda movie series is one of my most favorite works of art out there. As I have grown up and am now in my early twenties, I have watched these movies many times and always felt a profound change in my mind and how I feel. And, goes without saying, Master Oogway was the one character who always said something that could either inspire you, pacify you, or make you cry.
Oh, beautiful Oogway… You possess such infinite wisdom. Before starting this post I was feeling troubled and inadequate. It’s so easy for the mind to stumble and we trust those missteps as the truth.
But, as Master Oogway said, “Your mind is like this water, my friend. When it is agitated, it becomes difficult to see. But if you allow it to settle, the answer becomes clear.”
I love you, Master Oogway. Thank you for always being there and helping me feel better, helping me believe in myself…
I hope that with these quotes from Master Oogway, you will find the words that you need to bring your mind to peace and let go of the illusion of control. You deserve to live your best life. Here you go:
