Always we hope someone else has the answer ~ Lao Tzu

Always we hope someone else has the answer,

some other place will be better,

some other time it will all turn out.

 

This is it; no one else has the answer,

no other place will be better,

and it has already turned out.

 

At the center of your being, you have the answer;

you know who you are and you know what you want.

There is no need to run outside for better seeing.

Nor to peer from a window.

Rather abide at the center of your being;

for the more you leave it, the less you learn.

Search your heart and see the way to do is to be.

 

~ Lao Tzu (Chinese filosoof, wijsgeer, ca 600 vC)
