“Simplicity, patience, compassion.

These three are your greatest treasures.

you accord with the way things are.

Compassionate toward yourself,

you reconcile all beings in the world.”

(Tao Te Ching)

rejoice in the way things are.

When you realize there is nothing lacking,

the whole world belongs to you.”

“At the center of your being

you have the answer;

you know who you are

and you know what you want.”

“Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear?”
