The external world is fragile, and he who meddles with its natural way, risks causing damage to himself. He who tries to grasp it, thereby loses it.
It is natural for things to change, sometimes being ahead, sometimes behind.
There are times when even breathing may be difficult, whereas its natural state is easy.
Sometimes one is strong, and sometimes weak, sometimes healthy, and sometimes sick, sometimes is first, and at other times behind.
The sage does not try to change the world by force, for he knows that force results in force. He avoids extremes and excesses, and does not become complacent.
Resonation, Pietro, resonation. A man wiser than I stopped me during a conversation about much the same issues. He tore what little optimism and illusion I had left about the situation of this society completely down and then, proceeded to call his words all nonsense and mine irrelevant. There was nothing I could do and my ego knew it. Disillusion is truly the first step to enligtenment. blablablablablablalbalab/ =)
