Julie Joined me for #11 and we spoke a bit about her vaping. I selected #60 and went through it on my own.

#11 "Emptiness is Valuable"
Spokes, tire, rim, and hub all make a wheel,
Yet it is the space where the axel goes that makes it worthwhile.

Clay is formed into a vessel,
A vessel’s function is to hold things,
Thus its form includes emptiness.

A house can be built
But if it were solid, it would be useless.

It is easy to see structure,
But structure is there to expose the value of emptiness.


#60 "Combating Evil"
While governing anything, use restraint,
Treat it like cooking a small bit of fish,
Getting it perfect takes less than you think.

Centering all things in Tao,
Evil, with nothing to oppose,
Returns to a state of illusion.

All harm dissipates in the face of those that know their true selves.
