Verse 2 of The Tau

So if you survived yesterday, let's plough on into the 2nd Verse, I fully appreciate this may be a bit weird for some and that's cool, life doesn't change in our comfort zone.

2nd Verse
Under heaven all can see beauty as beauty,
only because there is ugliness.
All can know good as good only because there is evil.
Being and nonbeing produce each other.
The difficult is born in the easy
Long is defined by short, the high by the low.
Before and after go along with each other.
So the sage lives openly with apparent duality
and paradoxical unity.
The sage can act without effort
and teach without words.
Nurturing things without possessing them,
he works, but not for rewards
he competes, but not for results.
When the work is done, it is forgotten.
That is why it lasts forever.

• effort only exists with non effort, fuse the 2 together & the result is effortless action
• Today, notice an opportunity to defend or explain yourself, and choose not to
• turn within and sense the texture of misunderstanding
• don't get caught up in the duality of being right or wrong
• 2 words to sum up this verse
