Tao Bible - Matthew 5:14-16

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
~ King James version ~

Therefore the sage takes care of all men
And abandons no one.
He takes care of all things
And abandons nothing.
This is called "following the light."
~ from Verse 27 of the Tao Te Ching ~
The sun always has been a focal point in the religions and philosophies of old. This is not surprising because, without the sun, there wouldn't much of any life on Planet Earth!

Just as the sun shines on the good and the bad alike, we should take care of and be a resource for all living things.
