Our hearts and minds have
a natural harmony with the Tao;
but distractions are everywhere,
pushing, pulling, shoving,
clamoring for attention.

From Tao Te Ching, Chapter 53
Not one more thing to add
to an overcrowded mind;
not another rung
on the ladder of achievement;
not something else affixed
to the spiritual aura;
not a conquest,
not a victory,
not a mastery.
The Tao is what is there
when these things
have lost their luster.

The paradox I have faced throughout my life
is the effortless effort necessary for a life of natural joy.
Spiritual practices abound.
Many lifetimes can be spent
on so-called mastery of a practice or a path.

It’s seems foolish to believe that the Taoist path is easy, but it is.
Yet the paradox arises when I realize just how enormous
is the accumulation of crap in the synapses of my brain,
and how much willingness is required to patiently release,
one by one,
the stories, desires, and fears.

I begin to see the courage required for me to spend a day,
and hour, or even a minute without a conditioned thought
to distract me from my natural, easy, joyous path.
A paradox indeed.
A wu-wei path;
a path of effortless effort.

Receiving peer approval helps us continue on.
Appearing cool and in control stifles our joy and growth.
We are born naturally creative,
it is our inner healer..."creativity unused becomes fungi".
I experienced my first nail fungus last year.
It takes most people 6 to 8 months to heal a nail fungus and some never do.
Practice playing with passion and freedom
until it is the new normal.

You have always been enough: good enough, kind enough,
smart enough, well enough, pretty enough,
caring enough, generous enough.
Share any shame that you hold to reclaim the energy it is stealing.
