The most perfect appears to be flawed, but it will never be exhausted. The most fulfilled appears to be hollow, but it will never be emptied out. The straightest path appears full of twist and turns. The highest craft appears unworked. The best orator sounds plain. Serenity governs the cosmos. LaoZi

Peace is a force of strength, but it must also be nurtured and protected. Peace that is not defended will eventually shatter. Protect peace in its purest form and avoid those things which threaten its health. jojo4peace

The Dao
Trying to meet it, you’ll never see its head.
Trying to follow it, you’ll never catch its tail. Primordial Dao governs all phenomena of the present. To discern the texture of the Dao is to know the source of the cosmos. - Lao Zi

Dao is a vessel from which the flow never ends. Unfathomable! Like the origin of all things. Dulling edges, dissolving entanglements, hiding glows, fusing with terrestrial dust, it faded away… or does it? I know not from what it descends. Maybe it is older than the creator. - Lao Zi
