Living The Wisdom of The Tao.
Verse 65.
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 65.

Simple.

Learn to keep things Simple,
and nature will lead the way.
Look for extraordinary,
in the Simplest patterns of common and ordinary.

Guide, and be guided,
by admitting you don't know.
There is Simplicity and respect, 
in finding your own way.

Stay Simple and humble,
and allow truth into life.
A symbol of strength lives in instinct,
silence, and nature at work.

For to truly understand, be aware, and to grow,
is to come from that place, within your heart;
that is (totally) free, clear, awake, and....
Simple.

Live. Inspired.

Raymond Paul
