∞ letting go of my uniqueness and surrendering to this simple way of life, i am bound to find that i feel a part of something. ∞

and feeling a part of something gives me the strength to walk through life, hardships and all.
no headships to gripe about today, except a lack of time to do what i need to do. i am okay, a little anxious about the new house, and the drive down to colorado springs to be of service to my fellowship, but all in all i am doing well.
yes , this reading is what i needed to hear today. the idea that i am not all that unique is a good thing, especially since i will be representing my fellowship to a multitude of professionals this afternoon. so off to work and see what i can accomplish in the next forty-five minutes
happy ninth anniversary jay mon!

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge
Book 2
1) Or fame or life,
Which do you hold more dear?
Or life or wealth,
To which would you adhere?
Keep life and lose those other things;
Keep them and lose your life:--which brings
Sorrow and pain more near?
