Reviews: Be Water, My Friend (1)

I have long been a fan of Bruce Lee, dating back to my school days. He inspired me to become a Martial Artist, as did his son Brandon. I have read every book written about Bruce Lee that was sanctioned or endorsed by his wife Linda Lee Calder.

Seeing Shannon Lee announce the release of “Be Water My Friend” made me quickly pre-order from Waterstones. Having picked my copy up a couple of weeks ago, I finished reading a couple of other books, before starting to read this one.

Once started it is hard to put down. Shannon writes in a clear to understand and very open manner. Giving the reader many opportunities to look inward at themselves and outward at the work at large. Many of the Bruce Lee books I have previously read relate to Martial Arts and his Philosophy on life. This is no exception.

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, which has awakened some old thought processes and reminded me that we are after all, ‘all just Human Beings.’

Thank you for writing this book Shannon. I wish you, your mother and your daughter happiness and above all, safety in your future. Stay true to yourself...
