   Time once again to dust off the old Chinese philosophy, which may become more relevant in the future, given where our federal government is dragging us.

   “The wise student hears of the Tao and practices it diligently.
   The average student hears of the Tao and gives it thought now and again.
   The foolish student hears of the Tao and laughs aloud.
   If there were no laughter, the Tao would not be what it is.

   Hence it is said:
   The bright path seems dim;
   Going forward seems like retreat;
   The easy way seems hard;
   The highest Virtue seems empty;
   Great purity seems sullied;
   A wealth of Virtue seems inadequate;
   The strength of Virtue seems frail;
   Real Virtue seems unreal;
   The perfect square has no corners;
   Great talents ripen late;
   The highest notes are hard to hear;
   The greatest form has no shape.
   The Tao is hidden and without name.
   The Tao alone nourishes and brings everything to fulfillment.”

   Tao Te Ching, Chapter Forty-One, as translated by Gia-fu Feng and Jane English

   Dedicated to some folks who fight the good fight in politics and elsewhere, and to those who have allied with me and supported me for the past 11 years. This is my final post in blogdom for a long while. Peace and love.

   Say it ain’t so, Donna! Once again I am impressed with your knowledge and profundity.

   If Mumpower had gotten past even the first few pages in The Art of War he would’ve known that according to Sun Tzu, “All war is deception.”
