Transform Fear’s Fruit

| The Tao Chapter 46 – My Second Interpretation |

When there is positive forward movement for the benefit of all, fear of one another is not a factor. On the contrary, distrust that there is a flow to life creates fear and results in disharmony among people.

Living with the belief that you are a target of harm generates defensive living, and at its base is fear. This is the fruit of a competitive mindset. Striving is not in harmony with life’s flow.

It is more advantageous to choose to live in harmony with life’s flow; this way your base is compassion, your mindset is cooperative and your fruit is life’s richness.

LIVING THE TAO: Today, consider a situation where you are trying to prove you are better than someone else. Remember, there is only one you. You are unique, so you are already the best—the best at being you. Just be that.
