The Humanness of Your Enemy

| The Tao Chapter 31 – My Fourth Interpretation|

Pursue peace with all of your power, only accepting its opposite when it is absolutely necessary.

It is simple: even when it comes to your opposition, value peace, because in the end, your opposers are human too.

LIVING THE TAO: Today, I invite you to reflect on the first, second and third interpretations along with this fourth and ask, are there any shifts you are prepared to make today in relation to aligning with the art of living as shared in the Tao?

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