Thoughts Along the Journey - Verse 77 - The Tao of Balance

     Nature's way is to restore balance: where there is excess, Nature reduces and where there is scarcity, Nature increases.  When forests grow too thick, wildfires thin  In land saturated with rain and flood, eventually drought occurs. Mountains are worn down, valleys built up.

     One of the ways to allow new prosperity into our lives is to take stock of what we own, clear out the excess by whatever means:  gifts to those who are in need, garage sales, recycling and finally, the trash.

     Clearing out the clutter does more than beautify a space;  it clears the mind allowing new thoughts, ideas and inspiration to flow in.

     The talents you possess, the knowledge you've gained, the joy you feel, the loving kindness you show in caring for yourself are all meant to be shared. As the song says, "and the world will be a better place".
