Create hope and you create disappointment. Create fear and you grow fear. Create expectations and failure will cause you to collapse. Try to force things and they will break. Enjoy the mountain, do not try to be king of it. Walk softly and carry the Tao with you. Listen for the stars at night and you will hear the Tao. Learn from the sunlight crossing the floor on sunny days and the rain tapping at the window on rainy days. Watch the snow fall and then melt. No guru required.

Walk Softly
Create hope and you create disappointment. Create fear and you grow fear. Create expectations and failure will cause you to collapse. Try to force things and they will break. Enjoy the mountain, do not try to be king of it. Walk softly and carry the Tao with you. Listen for the stars at night and you will hear the Tao. Learn from the sunlight crossing the floor on sunny days and the rain tapping at the window on rainy days. Watch the snow fall and then melt. No guru required.
