You cannot perceive beauty without understanding ugliness.
You cannot appreciate goodness without accepting badness.
Birth and death depend on each other.
Difficulty and easiness sustain each other.
High and low define each other.
Beginnings and endings follow each other.
Let things come and go, as they must.
Hold onto nothing.
Avoid desiring anything.
Allow things to fall in place without rushing anything.
Empty your mind and let your heart be at peace.
Because serenity endures everything.
~ Tao Te Ching
