We part at the crossroads,
You leave with your joys and problems,
I with mine. Alone, I look down the road.
Each one must walk one's own path
People's paths come together all too briefly when sharing relationships, but that makes
those times no less valuable. We must take advantage of support adn sharing in a
mutually beneficial way. Whenever we take from another, we should try to give back
something. This is fundamental. No one should lean on another person, or expect another
to carry them a long distance down the raod. People should walk side by side for as long
as their journey carries them, without becoming dependent on one another.
There should be no obligation. If I can help someone do something, then I should do so
without any hesitation or expectation of reward or debt. If there is somethign that I
need to learn and my companion can show it to me, then I should accept it in humility.
No one "owns" knowledge. It should be freely shared. Parting is inherent in all
meeting. Nothing lasts forever. Transience is what gives life poignancy. Every person
is responsible for himself or herself. There is no road to walk but your own.
-Deng Ming-Dao
There is no road to walk but your own.
Transience is what gives life poignancy.
I'm keeping this in my heart.
