Contemplations. . .

[silentbeauty]

So, I put off writing papers for a couple classes I took this semester and now I'm sitting here writing all of them. It's really amusing to me because I can clearly see how my perspective has changed over time. I'm not the same person I was a year ago, a month ago, a week ago, a day ago, or even a second ago. I am me singularly in this moment

Develop the strength of a man,
but live as gently as a woman.
Become a brook and receive all things under heaven.
If you are such a brook
then Virtue will constantly flow into you
and you will become a simple child again.

Know the pure
but live the life of the dusty.
Become a fountain to all things under heaven.
If you bccome such a fountain
then you will have abundant Virtue
and you will become again, like uncarved wood.
