I've decided to us ate this journal for a more creative purpose since Twitter serves as my micro-blogging outlet now. Starting January 1st 2010, I am going to take a page from the Tao Te Ching and post it in here every week. Along with the text, I will include my own notes including my personal experiences, my take on the text at that exact moment and anything I might be feeling the time relating to the text. It is important to keep in mind that this is the Tao Te Ching as interpreted by Stephen Mitchell, and all rights go to him and HarperPerennial. No copyright infringement is intended. This will be an 81 week project for me, and while it seems to be an easy enough task now, I'm sure it won't be. I hope to gain further insight into the words of the Tao Te Ching and in doing so, I hope that I can grow into a better person because of it. I can't tell you what inspired me to do this, but what I can say is that I feel like I need to do this.
Stay tuned, and my first one goes up January 1st.
