treasures

“I have three treasures. Guard and keep them:
The first is deep love,
The second is frugality,
And the third is not to dare to be ahead of the world.
Because of deep love, one is courageous.
Because of frugality, one is generous.
Because of not daring to be ahead of the world, one becomes the leader of the world.”

What you want to compress 
you must first allow truly expanding. 
What you want to weaken 
you must first allow growing truly strong. 
What you want to destroy 
you must first allow truly to truly flourishing. 
From whomever you want to take away 
to him you must first truly give. 
This is called ‘being clear about the invisible’. 
The soft wins victory over the hard. 
The weak wins victory over the strong. 
One must not take the fish from the deep. 
One must not show the people 
the means of furthering the realm.
