Tao Te Ching 44

 Tao Te Ching 44


Which is more important, your honour or your life?

Which is more valuable, your possessions or your person?

Which is more destructive, success or failure?

Because of this, great love extracts a great cost and true wealth requires greater loss.

Knowing when you have enough avoids dishonour, and knowing when to stop will keep you from danger and bring you a long, happy life.


Lao Tzu


Exactly.  Know when to be satisfied, happy, and grateful for what you have.

Much love,

MotherTory
