okay enough of the fake ones
if i keep busy i will not be able to get nervous about speaking at Harmony tonight. i still have trouble believing that i actually can carry the message to H&I meetings and of course i will freak about it later
i am doing well this morning despite the restless night. I did get everything done before coming into work and had my best meditation session for this week this morning
p'haps i have been sleeping too much and i need to get less sleep instaed of more.

anyway enough of this 4 now
I am grateful I am still kicking this morning!
I want to be able to add more or delete text from existing blogs!
cool this function is working!

Tao Te Ching

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

The Tao Teh King, or The Tao and Its Characteristics
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 2

3) Thus it is that dignity finds its (firm) root in its (previous)
meanness, and what is lofty finds its stability in the lowness (from
which it rises). Hence princes and kings call themselves 'Orphans,'
'Men of small virtue,' and as 'Carriages without a nave.' Is not this
an acknowledgment that in their considering themselves mean they see
the foundation of their dignity? So it is that in the enumeration
of the different parts of a carriage we do not come on what makes
it answer the ends of a carriage. They do not wish to show themselves
elegant-looking as jade, but (prefer) to be coarse-looking as an (ordinary)
stone.
