Soul Food

Everybody on earth
knowing that beauty is beautiful
makes ugliness.

Everybody knowing
that goodness is good
makes wickedness.

For being and nonbeing
arise together;
hard and easy
complete each other;
long and short shape each other;
high and low
depend on each other;
note and voice
make the music together;
before and after
follow each other.

That's why the wise soul
does without doing;
teaches without talking.

The things of this world
exist, they are;
you can't refuse them.

To bear and not to own;
to act and not to claim;
to do the work and let it go;
for just letting it go
is what makes it stay.

- Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching: A Book About the Way and the Power of the Way,
translated by Ursuala K. Le Guin
