Tao Bible - Ecclesiastes 4:13

Better is a poor and a wise child than an old and foolish king, who will no more be admonished.
~ King James version ~

He who is filled with Virtue is like a newborn child.
~ from Verse 55 of the Tao Te Ching ~

When we first enter this world, we take it as it comes. We see it and ourselves as an extension of the One. As we age, we build layer upon layer of separation and we try to take the world as we would will it. As both passages point to, we would be far better off if we looked at the world like a child.
