Virtues Are Consistent

| The Tao Chapter 49 – My Fourth Interpretation|

A master of her thoughts and emotions is able to demonstrate virtues of kindness and faithfulness even when others believe it is not deserved.

Her heart knows that demonstrating goodness is done without favoritism.

She looks upon all with the same mind and she is known as just.

The intention of her work is that it benefits all who are involved.

A master of her thoughts and emotions is even tempered, fluid and fair.

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.
