∞ growing my faith ∞
posted: Tue, Jun 14, 2005 05:36:42 AM
it is hard for me to start writing again after a few days off. i am not quite sure how to start or what to say this morning so i will just go with the flow and see what happens.
all of a sudden i am having major problems with what is happening inside of me. i am sure i am starting yet another growth spurt and feeling some growing pains and i do have FAITH that this is as it is supposed to be.
this morning however, i feel that my FAITH in HP and the program is at a low. i just do not see the point today of doing what i have been doing. i want more and seem to be getting less, and am growing a bit restless with myself and the world around me.
so i am okay today, trying to find the FAITH to continue what i am doing and letting everything else go.

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge
Book 2
2) It is only by this moderation that there is effected an early return
(to man's normal state). That early return is what I call the repeated
accumulation of the attributes (of the Tao). With that repeated accumulation
of those attributes, there comes the subjugation (of every obstacle
to such return). Of this subjugation we know not what shall be the
limit; and when one knows not what the limit shall be, he may be the
ruler of a state.
