Here is an anonymous reflection on poem #64 from the Tao Te Ching by Lao-Tzu:
Pay attention to what is
in order to prevent what is not
A cut needs cleaning
A hurt needs caring
A relationship needs tending
Pay attention to what is
in order to grow what is not
A joy needs sharing
An idea needs nurturing
Creativity needs expressing
The greatest of pine trees
is deeply rooted
yet easily grows
from the tiniest of seeds.

This daily journal came from a promise. Right before Memorial Day 2009, I met with my business coach Joe Stumpf. I shared with him my total burn out in my business of 20 years. Frustrated by what my life had become, I promised to get up at 5:00 AM every day, meditate and journal and focus on bringing passion back into every aspect of my life, my work, my family and my personal growth. Instead of going to work every day and having a PITY PARTY, I have decided to have a PASSION PARTY.
