Ideal

Giving birth and nourishing;
having, yet not possessing;
working, yet not taking credit;
leading without controlling or dominating. ~ Lao-Tzo
Surrender. Balance. Serenity.
To create and to build,
to have but not be possessed
by possessing, by the importance
of having. Working for the glory
of accomplishment, undiscussed,
perhaps unnoticed by others,
receiving joy from the labor,
from watching pieces come together,
an entity take shape, but without pride,
without being puffed up, without the need
that others see and understand and recognize.
To do what comes naturally, moving forward
when you comprehend the need, the direction,
the steps necessary. Having no need
for validation, for appreciation, for admiration.
Reveling in the being, in the doing,
in the companionship and in the solitude.
Surrender. Balance. Serenity.
