The HitchHiking game

The Hitchhiking game is an exciting story about a woman finding her inner confidence. The most memorable line to me in the story was, "I only kiss girls that I'm in love with." This line seems so degrading towards women, as she still follows through with the sexual endeavors. The fact that he does not love her, but in essence they 'made love' is belittling to me.

The Tao Te Ching

21. Using Emptiness

Harmony is only in following the Way.

The Way is without form or quality,
But expresses all forms and qualities;
The Way is hidden and implicate,
But expresses all of nature;
The Way is unchanging,
But expresses all motion.

Beneath sensation and memory
The Way is the source of all the world.
How can I understand the source of the world?
By accepting.

This chapter of the Tao Te Ching states that the only way of understanding the source of the world, is to accept it. The Tao illustrates that in order for something to have an outstanding characteristic, there must be an opposing characteristic that makes it stand out. The Tao is a simple book, that alludes to very complex thoughts and morals, in regards to life and the world around us.
