Does anyone still read this?
I know I barely post in here. But, I read an excerpt from a book I got from Cara for Christmas and it really opened up my eyes to the world. If you get the chance, read "The Tao of Pooh" and "The Te of Piglet" and maybe you'll understand what I'm talking about.
"I have three treasures,
Which I guard and keep.
The first is compassion.
The second is economy.
The third is humility.
From compassion comes courage.
From economy comes the means to be generous.
From humility comes responsible leadership.
Today, men have discarded compassion
In order to be bold.
They have abandoned economy
In order to be big spenders.
They have rejected humility
In order to be first.
This is the road to death."
-Lao Tse
