		<description><![CDATA[The tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The only advice I got on Taoist meditation was: try not to try not to think.

		<description><![CDATA[The soft overcomes the hard. The slow overcomes the fast. Let your workings remain a mystery. Just show people the results. I found that quote pinned on a bulletin board at the Taoist Tai Chi Society nearly 20 years ago, and spent a decade trying to find the version of the Tao Te Ching it [...]]]></description>

There&#8217;s your bucket list, that list of things you should do before you die &#8217;cause your life will be better for going out and doing them; but there should be a fuckit list too &#8211; for all that stuff you think is a good idea but your life would actually [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m a little at a loss these days, dealing with the delightful problem of feeling better. Seriously, it&#8217;s a rather strange and foreign feeling after over 6 months of decrepitude. My current dillemma is one of how to rebuild my life, and into what? I have so many interests and things pulling at me, I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There were a pair of spruce trees in my neigbourhood, grew up side by side, entwined. The wind storm last fall took one down, and the remaining one, having spent decades growing in a shared space, stands now with an implied emptiness of the tree fallen. A space made up of places where branches used [...]]]></description>
