Verse 40
The movement of the Tao consists in Returning.
The use of the Tao consists in softness.
All things under Heaven are born of the corporeal:
The corporeal is born of the incorporeal.
Commentary: A very small part of us comes from the stars, a speck of Divinity. It is sent from Heaven down to Earth and it’s mission in life is to Return. But our obsessive desires, our ignorance, our forgetfulness keep us trapped here. What we need cannot be grasped aggressively or demanded as our due returns. Try silence and humility. Try a little love.

When one identifies himself with the different events of life, he makes many mistakes. If one identifies himself with a drink that a drunken friend offers to him, he ends up drunk.
