Thoughts Along the Journey - Verse 59 - Restraint

     The Tao gives without flourishes, without pronouncements, generously and without preamble.  In Its vast loving nature It fills the needs of all creation.

     I marvel at the efficiency of nature; all of creation has its place and time.  It needs no outside influence to "tame" it.  It needs no rule from the hand of man.  When we live in harmony with the Tao, we can let what is, be.

     Long life is given to those whose virtue is rooted deeply in the Tao.
