Living The Wisdom of The Tao
Verse 53

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 interpretation 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 53.

                                 Honourably

               Live Honourably, as he would say.
                         Do not fear... and do not stray.
                             Imagine..... all that may,
              When Honourably walks... in the "Great Way."

                       Honourably is there, for all to see.
                        A place to live.... and simply be.
                       All of it connected... you and me,
                    A oneness, the universe... we are free.

                     Honourably, kind, and aligned with all;
                         Now take heed, to a different call.
                           Do not stumble... do not fall.
                Believe, Honourably... stand proud... and tall.

                       Make a difference... make that vow.
                 To change, practice, and know Honourably now.
                       See yourself in others.... feel the Wow!
           When you choose Honour, in harmony, with "The Tao" 

Live. Inspired.
