It's best to be like water,nurturing the ten thousand thingswithout competing,flowing into places people scorn,very like the Tao.Make the earth a dwelling place.Cultivate the heart and mind.Practice benevolence.Stand by your word.Govern with equity.Serve skillfully.Act in a timely way,without contentiousness,free of blame.

Heaven is eternal. The earth endures.The reason for heaven's eternity and earth's enduranceis that they do not live for themselves only, and thereby live forever.The sage steps back but remains in front,the outside always within.Self is realized through selflessness.
