Gentle- Man Living a simple and plain life is ideal, although being rich and having materialistic possessions doesn’t necessesarily contradict the way of the tao. You can simply play the game of life without mixing your identification with the materialistic succession. This is obviously not the case in today’s society.

4. For me i can strive, but not too attach to it. Moving or flowing through what you want (prefer) is good. Just like people who meditate aka wants to go towards something. I think the problem is attachment aka binary yes or no. Examples if you, want to run marathon but fall short. Is not a problem. How you attach or view the attainment of outcome is the problem. The journey and task you take to run marathon can be blissful and flowing if you dont exert force or push yourself reluctantly.

I will say striving is not bad. It is the attachment to striving that is bad. Strive aka go towards what you want sometimes, but not too hard. If you dont get it. No big deal.

5:40 after I stopped playing the violin as a kid, I remember always being told that I could’ve been a master at my age or how I’m not productive like my other relatives who could afford clubs and sports. A part of me saw the beauty in being seen as the “useless” scapegoat, because I pioneered my interest in creativity and science: writing, designing, forensics/mortuary science, reading, drawing and editing. All are which I find myself always gravitating towards. As I grew up, many began to exploit this because I was now “exceptional” after receiving rewards and whatnot from the work and effort I’ve put in. I’ve learned that for most who rush in life, they silence their inner voice and expect others to do the same. Ive learned to listen to mines and ignore judgement which doesn’t provide much benefit

Every day I agree more and more with principles, teachings or however you wish to call them, pertaining to the Taoism, Buddhism and Stoicism; I can look back an acknowledge many, many points in my life in which I was grasping for mere illusions. The result? I got frustrated, I got anxious, I got depressed, I got angry, I was these and many other things except one: happy. Because I was striving to belong somewhere I didn't, and now I laugh at my puerile desires of being noticed, of being on the spotlight, of yearning things that I was "supposed to strive for". But now I can acknowledge it as a teaching from the Universe. If I hadn't gone through that, I wouldn't recognize in this moment that I don't want that anymore. Not out of resentment or spite. Simply because I don't wish it, because I've experienced feeling whole by myself, by my own means, by what one may call _useless_ things, indeed. Thank you for this and many other of your amazing videos.

This is amazing in its capacity to heal slowly as it may. Taoism is a state and it is - at least to me - more abstract than religious teachings which impose more concretized ideologies.
