    “Love

    Embracing Tao, you become embraced.
    Supple, breathing gently, you become reborn.
    Clearing your vision, you become clear.
    Nurturing your beloved, you become impartial.
    Opening your heart, you become accepted.
    Accepting the World, you embrace Tao.
    Bearing and nurturing,
    Creating but not owning,
    Giving without demanding,
    Controlling without authority,
    This is love.”
