Hi Christine et al,<br>
<br>
Per your request, here’s a few quotes from the Tao Te Ching that speak to OST,
letting go and one less thing:<br>
<br>
“Therefore the Sage is devoted to non-action,<br>
Moves without teaching,<br>
Creates ten thousand things without instruction,<br>
Lives but does not own,<br>
Acts but does not presume,<br>
Accomplishes without taking credit.<br>
<br>
When no credit is taken,<br>
Accomplishment endures.” <br>
<br>
And <br>
<br>
“Accept the world as it is.<br>
If you accept the world,<br>
The Tao will be luminous inside of you<br>
And you will return to your primal self.”<br>
<br>
Hope this finds everyone well,<br>
Deidre<br>
<br>
