About Me

What is well planted cannot be uprooted.
What is well embraced cannot slip away.
Cultivate virtue in your person, and it becomes a genuine part of you.
Cultivate it in the family, and it will abide.
Cultivate it in the community, and it will live and grow.
Cultivate it in the state, and it will flourish abundantly.
Cultivate it in the world, and it will become universal.
Hence a person must be judged as a person;
A family as a family;
A Community as a community;
A state as a state;
The world as world.
How do I know about the world?
By what is within me.

-Tao Teh Ching
