Living The Wisdom of The Tao.

Verse Nine.

Through the inspirations of my spiritual mentor Dr. Wayne Dyer,

I have undertaken this year, (as he did in 2006), the teachings of the

eighty-one verses of the "Tao Te Ching." Legend says that the "Tao"

(pronounced "Dao") was written by the prophet "Lao-tzu" some five

hundred years before the birth of Christ. The interpretations of the words

Tao is "The Way" Te is "The Shape and Power" and Ching is "The Book."

It has been called "one of the profoundest books in world philosophy."

For my references I have been studying the interpretations and teachings

of Dr. Dyer from his book "Change Your Thoughts - Change Your Life."

In the spirit of Eagle Eye, here is my inspired (poetic) interpretation of

Verse Nine.

                                        Humble.

Humble knows, 

when enough...is enough.

The gentleness of a humility from deep,

within;

An understanding, of a life;

Lived... 

More;

With less.

It's wisdom, 

a knowledge of alignment and balance,

in this precise moment.

Trusting;

that who you "truly" are, 

is ALL you really need.

Like the cup that is full;

Humble, within itself,

feeling no need to be,

"Overfilled."

It is content, with all that it has.

Do not listen to the noisy needs, 

of the EGO world...

Never satisfied.

Let go, quietly;
Release all fears,

and seek pleasure in the humility that is,

the infinite state of;

Grace.

Live. Inspired.
