“I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.”
— Lao Tzu
In the material world, it is often difficult to see simplicity, patience, and compassion as “greatest treasures”. So much of our collective energy is focused on the attainment of possessions, position, and approval, all external by their very nature. All polar opposites of simplicity, patience, and compassion.
A life where these three internal attributes flourish is an enlightened life. It is a life where the material becomes immaterial, where stressful frustration is displaced by trusting and knowing, and love guides all that you do.
Embrace the transformative power of these three “greatest treasures”.
