"When The Shoe Fits", by Chuang Tzu

Found this in the right moment at the right time. Thank you for your messages. Gratitude.



Chuang Tzu Story - When the shoe fits


Chu’i the draftsman

could draw more perfect circles

freehand than with a compass


His fingers brought forth

spontaneous forms from nowhere

His mind was meanwhile free and

without concern with what he was doing


No application was needed

his mind was perfectly simple

and knew no obstacle


So, when the shoe fits,

the foot is forgotten

when the belt fits, the belly is forgotten

and when the heart is right,

'for' and 'against' are forgotten


No drives, no compulsions,

no needs, no attractions

then your affairs are under control

you are a free man


Easy is right

begin right and you are easy

continue easy and you are right

The right way to go easy

is to forget

the right way

and forget that

the going is easy
