another day -- another blog

Posted: Sun, Sep 26, 2004 07:47:45 AM

well i know not where i will be tonight so this i may not blog tomorrow. today's reading was so close to the mark for me it almost made me puke. i was angry at my travelling partner for thinking about going home, when here i am already making plans for Monday evening and worrying about what i have to face on Tuesday. here i am as far away from home as i can get and still be in the state of colorado, thinking about days in the future uinstead of enjoying being where and when i am. i guess i need to lookm at my feet and remember exactly where i am
-- HERE and NOW --
and let the rest of the world take care of itself until i get back. so on that note:
GO BRONCOS

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 1

3) A skilful (commander) strikes a decisive blow, and stops. He does
not dare (by continuing his operations) to assert and complete his
mastery. He will strike the blow, but will be on his guard against
being vain or boastful or arrogant in consequence of it. He strikes
it as a matter of necessity; he strikes it, but not from a wish for
mastery.
