Tao of Contentment

as water


nourishes all things effortlessly


and is satisfied to settle in low places


we too can be content with what we have


rejoice in the way things are


understand there is nothing lacking



enjoy simple everyday lives


realize the mystery



when there is no desire
all things are at peace


~adapted from chapters 1, 8, 37 and 44 of the Tao Te Ching
