We live in a society that seems to say, "The more you amass, the more value you possess as a human being"... I guarantee that you'll notice a refreshing feeling of freedom as your desire diminishes and you let go of your obsession with the material objects you've amassed.
... As Lao-tzu might say,
you came here with no-thing andyou leave with no-thing,
so take great pleasure in all that has arrived in your life.
.. In essence, Lao-tzu is saying that what's real never changes because its has no form. So the more you can let things unfold naturally, the more harmoniously you're living the Tao.
Enjoy the flowers, clouds, sunsets, storms, stars, mountains, and all the people you encounter.
Be with the world, in it and adoring it, but not needing to posses it. This is the way of peace. This is the way of the Tao.
Change your thoughts - change your life by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer

by the way Huong,
How can I "amass" the book that Lao-Tzu talked about not "amassing". Can I "amass" it from Border or Amazon.com?...and when I do get there, do I "amass" it with my charm or US Dollar bills?
Just kidding, nice thought...can I have your Nikon D70 setup? It will free you of the weight and bring you enlightenment for real.
your friend,
Duy
Het is een mooie gedachte en tevens zijn het mooie foto's. Omdat er niemand anders vermeld is, denk ik dat jij ze zelf gemaakt hebt. Of niet? Je wordt nog eens een profesionele fotograaf. Het artistieke komt in je naar boven. Ik denk dat je lange tijd verstopt hebt.
