Renee Nicole Good, RIP
How to see the light
Without looking?
How to be the light
Without looking?
How to fight the good fight
Without right-hooking?
How to win the good fight
Without overlooking
The joy of what’s good
The innocence of childhood?
From here, where, dear one?
To care, dare, dear one.
What light shines from your heart?
What joy, what love, dare you impart?
A meditation inspired by Tao Te Ching – Verse 47
Without opening your door,
you can open your heart to the world.
Without looking out your window,
you can see the essence of the Tao.
The more you know,
the less you understand.
The Master arrives without leaving,
sees the light without looking,
achieves without doing a thing.
(translation by Stephen Mitchell, 1995)
