then all things will fall into place.
A whirlwind does not last a whole morning.
A downpour of rain does not last a whole day.
And who works these?
Heaven and Earth.
What Heaven and Earth cannot do enduringly:
how much less can man do it?
(From the Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu)
And yes, the sun came out today...

A comment made by the instructor at our day-long Tai Chi seminar made me think it is about time that I read the Tao Te Ching again.
It's one of the great texts, isn't it? Tho' this quote comes from the old, classic Wilhelm ed. try Snyder's favourite translation by Addiss & Lombardo from Hackett Publishing of Indianapolis.
