Wen Tzu - Verse 108, Part I

from Verse One Hundred Eight

In the general course of human life, attention should be minute, while aspiration should be great; knowledge should be round, while action should be straight; abilities should be many, while concerns should be few.

~ Wen-tzu: Understanding the Mysteries ~

I'm going to break away from my usual tact in attempting to explain or draw out a key point of this verse. Instead, I will let Lao Tzu explain what he means in regards to these pairs of opposites in the subsequent parts to be posted throughout the day.

Of course, I may throw in an observation or two...or I may not. We'll see. ;>)
