I read a lot of Taoism. I started a while ago and have been studying it in some form or other over the last 6 years.
I'm now, finally, beginning to see how these esoteric concepts apply to everyday life. The idea of being able to change, to be open to possibilites and just letting things go where they're supposed to go. It's an amazing feeling.
There's a line from the Analects of Confucius that says "Isn't it wonderful to apply what you've learned?". Truer words have not been spoken.
Am I a paragon of serenity and peace now? Shit no. But I'm working on it.
