reflection on Ch. 2 of Tao

Everything or every concept we can find, just because they have comparisons. Just like the beauty and ugly. But there has no extreme in any kind of concept, because once it reached its extreme, the next thing had to happen would be going to the opposite side. Because nothing can least forever, a wise man will just watch the change of everything without creating anything. A wise man will do things without he’s own emotion. A wise man won’t hold the success he made forever; he will leave it where he made it. Because a wise man don’t care the successes he made, without comparison, there has no fail in he’s life.
