The best of man is like water,
Which benefits all things, and does not contend with them,
Which flows in places that others disdain,
Where it is in harmony with the Way.
So the sage:
Lives within nature,
Thinks within the deep,
Gives within impartiality,
Speaks within trust,
Governs within order,
Crafts within ability,
Acts within opportunity.
He does not contend, and none contend against him.
It was May and I loved driving down my driveway just to admire my lawn filled with dandelions and sweet purple violets. Bill couldn’t wait to cut the grass, but I kept insisting that I take photos of our pooch before the big chop. Truth be told, I knew the lawn wouldn’t look like this again, so I took my “dandy” old time. Armed with my new camera and lens, I snapped some shots of my most unpredictable subject, Pirate.
