Een mens heeft twee levens. Het tweede leven begint wanneer hij zich realiseert dat hij maar één leven heeft. - #Confucius

Motto from one of Confucius's students, Zengzi. As recorded in the book "Analects" (a.k.a. "Sayings of Confucius"). My own simple translation.

"Every day, I reflects on these three:

Did I not put my heart into things that I did?

Did I not keep my words to friends?

Did I not practice the lessons that I learnt?"

It is better to light one small candle of gratitude than to curse the darkness.

This is very good.

"Perhaps Ritual is no more and no less than the suppleness we need, as moral agents, to get along and to get things done, while being as minimally annoying as can be."

[Personally, I certainly could do with a bit more of such moral suppleness! :-)]

And what you say here makes me see Confucius as much more Taoist then I did before. Integrating, not into a rigid set of rules, but into the language those around me can understand.
