These words you share from the Tao Te Ching. They always seem to find me at the right moment.
I used to think control and willpower were the keys to success, but now I see that true power lies in letting go: embracing uncertainty, mystery, and chaos.
We try to force things, but the most effective way is to simply be. To allow things to unfold, to trust in the natural order.
The "mysterious virtue" is about being, not doing. Giving without attachment, helping without expectation of reward. That's the ultimate freedom.
