Path to Serenity
To continue Mel’s thoughts on Keeping Peace in Your Mind, let’s bring up an excerpt from Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu – Bro Chan — Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill. Keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt. Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench. [...]
