Make Life Like Play

| The Tao Chapter 68 – My Second Interpretation |

Regardless of your station or the circumstance, the best results come from a softened heart.

Whether in service or in confrontation, enter the mind of others and act from the warmth of your heart. This is how you’ll be your best.

Allow life’s flow to be your guide in all situations, and life will be like play.

LIVING THE TAO: Today, bring awareness to an overly serious situation like a disagreement then ask yourself: (1) what does it feel like to be in the other person’s shoes and (2) how do I respond with a kind heart? Follow the leading of the moment. You will see the situation become lighter. You will be allowing your best self to emerge.

My 2018 focus is to intentionally live the Tao Te Ching. This is my second 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.
