Ego in check

I chose to begin working with the 24th verse of the Tao Te Ching today -- Living Without Excess (http://www.taoteching.org/chapters/24.htm).

What struck me as funny was that I picked it because I thought it would speak to my current penchant for purging my space. Instead, it was a lesson in not bragging, showing off or being self-righteous. Hmmmmmm. Intriguing.

Author Wayne Dyer likens it to the sun, which is in a constant state of giving and doesn't demand anything in return. It is pure.

Be the sun.
