Why Openness

| The Tao Chapter 23 – My Fifth Interpretation|

Being honest with myself means not allowing self-deception to seep its way into my thoughts.

How do I ensure this?

Through openness.

Be open to experiences as they come. 

As I become one with each experience, I become receptive to the benefits and lessons they bring.

As I am more honest with myself, I move into deeper alignment with Life’s flow.

LIVING THE TAO: What have you been avoiding? Listen to your responses. Do they sound like excuses? If so, self-deception has taken you out of alignment with Life’s flow. Choose to be honest with yourself, and allow more ease in your experiences.

My 2018 focus is to intentionally live the Tao Te Ching. This is my fifth reading of Stephen Mitchell’s translation. I share my daily interpretations hoping to inspire you to do the same. 

Embrace your journey. Experience bliss. Live the Tao.
