We need to challenge the elements of life.  This will strengthen you and you will develop a practice that gives you inspiration and an uplifted feeling.  Life then becomes a process of growing up, and you becoming more and more fearless.  This way life becomes a sense of play.

Duality in life is not clearly demarcated, there is a fuzziness at the line.  Day does not have a sharp border with night.  There are complexities and counterpoints. Nature is full of subtlety and even false appearances; how wise must we be to follow life’s rhythms unerringly. 

Discover your truth, then you will realize the world is perfect as it is, and it can’t be improved.  See things as they are without trying to control them, let things go their own way.  If we treat our planet with care and love, we will be in synchronicity with ourselves.

If we wish to know what a person is like, we need only to observe on whom he bestows his care and what side of his own nature he cultivates and nourishes.  If we want to take care of the world, cultivate and nourish the good parts of your character and the world changes with you.
