Today's Daily Tao is:

Nature

Nature is not kind;
It treats all things impartially.
The Sage is not kind,
And treats all people impartially.

Nature is like a bellows,
Empty, yet never ceasing its supply.
The more it moves, the more it yields;
So the sage draws upon experience
And cannot be exhausted.

I think this is saying that the Sage is one who treats people without favouritism. He is as I aspire to be, seeking the balance in all things. It is also experience that continues to drive the Sage, providing incentive and inspiration to do the things he does.
