The Rolling Stone

After crossing a river, you should get far away from it. — Sun Tzu

The Rolling Stone accepts her own mortality and transience. She has no attachment to her past work. She accepts that all that we make is destined for the trash can; it is just a matter of time.

Above all, she has no ego and no pride to be hurt by the actions of others.
