Riding LaoTse's wave

I won't claim to understand it all, but Lao Tse had it going on. There are times when daily life feels exactly like body surfing: catch a wave, and let it ride.
Last night, just before going to bed, I definitely felt like I could feel it, like some sort of momentum that was not in my control. That's when it occurred to me, I just need to ride this like a wave, see where it goes.
