The mark of a moderate man
is freedom from his own ideas.
Tolerant like the sky,
all-pervading like sunlight,
firm like a mountain,
supple like a tree in the wind,
he has no destination in view
and makes use of anything
life happens to bring his way.

We allow our thoughts to pass unopposed through the spacious nature of
the mind. We cling to nothing and yet find all things to hold an
equal value.
Our stride does not lean towards a finish but
lingers - a gathering of steps
spread holy to the
ground.
We run free - in the boundless nature of the mind.
- Don't grasp. Every run has two agendas - ours, and spirits. Run with spirit. We can plan and have goals and heartfelt desires - yet hold them loosely for the way of nature - change - trumps all. To grasp is to suffer. To run free - is to surrender. The final steps of every run is the same final steps we take in bondage or freedom. We may get satisfaction from strict adherence to our own (ego's) agenda. But we never get the full taste of freedom found in letting go and following the course laid bare by spirit.
