Chapter 42 in the tao te ching

The Tao gave birth to One.
The One gave birth to Two.
The Two gave birth to Three.
The Three gave birth to all of creation.

All things carry Yin
yet embrace Yang.
They blend their life breaths
in order to produce harmony.

People despise being orphaned, widowed and poor.
But the noble ones take these as their titles.
In loosing, much is gained,
and in gaining, much is lost.

Leuke schrijfsels, heb je nog meer? Het bevalt me hoe je kijkt naar de wereld, een grote stap voorwaarts, in verhouding met de meeste mensen dan.
Kijk, o shit ja, kijk in hemelsnaam naar die wereld! (heerlijk dat je het uberhaupt vertelt :) )
Maar vergeet niet dat de wereld, constant terugkijkt ;)
