The attainment of the tao is a process. It is doing a thing not
for the sake of doing it; it is doing a thing because the doing releases us
from certain constraints of the limited self: narcissism, self-centredness,
preoccupation with the fears and worries and doubts that diminish us in
daily life.
The tao draws us into the domain of the potential self: self-realisation,
self-cultivation, and self-perfection.
(Dave Lowry)
Adopt an animal
This scheme represents an opportunity to contribute financially
to the wellbeing of animals that have been endangered by humanity.
Instead of an impersonal donation, you are sent information specific to one
particular animal.
This personal touch makes it an ideal gift because it is no longer abstract.
For children, in particular, this is very appealing.
