This week I’ve definitely experienced the theme described in this passage. We currently live in an age of Anxiety where the line between good/evil, sanity/insanity is very thin (and continues to grow thinner)

It helped to remind myself constantly of the fact that the Tao (Way) doesn’t choose either side. It somehow maintains a steady balance. It’s easy to want to accept only the good parts of ourselves, and denounce the bad/shadow side of ourselves. It really does take courage “to hold on to the center”… To evaluate/realize who you are without judgment or fear. It’s a somewhat comforting notion to think that I am both nothing (empty) and everything (inexhaustible).

Seek to be life itself.
