Be Water, My Friend: The Teachings of Bruce Lee

Excellent book, got one each for my sons.

Além de ótimo acabamento e diagramação de extremo bom gosto, o livro é uma obra fidedigna da "filosofia de Bruce Lee". Não se trata da história de um "lutador", e sim de um "pensador", cujos ensinamentos servem para todas as situações que vivenciamos no dia a dia. Sua filha Shannon não produziu um livro, mas uma obra de arte tanto para apreciadores de Bruce Lee como para os jovens que "ainda" não o conhecem (se é que isso é possível!).

I am a Bruce Lee fan since I am a little child. My older sister was also a fan of Bruce Lee and she liked to be called “Siu Lung” and I didn’t know why until I read this book. Siu Loong means “Little dragon”. I really think that my passion for Bruce Lee began from what she said about him. He was a true legend, a philosopher, a generous and kind man. Shannon described him very well and this is a very interesting story about his life in Hong Kong and California. One of my favorite quotes about him is: “There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.” I am a martial artist and he is a true inspiration in my life. He lived between two worlds “Being Chinese and being American”. I really felt this because I am deaf but I don’t sign, I talk, my family are all hearing but didn’t want to learn sign. In this world, there’s the hard of hearing, the hearing and the deaf/mute. I needed to choose where i identify myself the most and it was always been hard. But what I can say is that I am a human being and I have a place in this world. Bruce Lee preferred to be identified as a human being instead of his difference with others. We all are unique and we deserve to live a life of passion, happiness and peace.

Bought this book was the biggest gift I invest in myself. Learn some much wisdom from Bruce Lee & Author Shannon Lee. I love the concept most is where the movie showing your paring partner. We are learning to be better self by improving ourself. Do the work, empty my cup so I could fill my cup more things I would eventually like to find out. Thank you for writing this book and sharing such wisdom with the world

I would like to thank Shannon Lee for writing this book. I really took my time with it & have just finished it 6 months after purchasing it. I have loved and admired Bruce Lee for many years & wanted to read this specifically as Shannon Lee is a direct living link to Bruce Lee. There’s a lot packed into this book I could write a huge essay (but won’t ) . It gave me insights into Bruce Lee’s life & philosophies. Theres a huge treasure chest of practical & spiritual Wisdom. Also things that I never knew about this great human. Enormously helpful to anyone regardless of their culture, gender etc.. it’s Universal which to me is what Bruce Lee represents. It’s written beautifully with insight , humour & integrity. It will be a book I will return to for the rest of my life. Thankyou 🙏♥️⭐️✨
