FINDING HAPPINESS LIFE WITH TAOISM PHILOSOPHY
Taoism is a well-known philosophy originating from China which was introduced by Lao Tzu in the 500th century BC. This philosophy itself teaches us how humans should live their lives. That is to enjoy life as it is. Do things naturally without worrying about anything and let nature do the work.
"Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't fight them; it only creates sadness. Let reality come true. Let things flow forward naturally in any way they like." Lao Tzu
THE PRINCIPLE OF THE CONTROL DICHOTOMY
This philosophy contains a principle which gives us the understanding that we should only focus on two things namely our Thoughts and Actions, apart from these two things such as Actions & opinions of others, popularity, wealth and health. Everything is beyond our control and never expect anything other than these two things because it will only lead to disappointment and take away the peace.
"Watch your thoughts, they become your words; watch your words, they become your actions; watch your actions, they become your habits; watch your habits, they become your character; watch your character, they become your destiny." Lao Tzu
Let the flow of life carry us, it does not mean surrender but rather to be sincere and grateful for everything that happens in life. Because every problem in life must bring us to a higher level of goodness.
"Water is the softest thing, yet it can penetrate mountains and the earth. This clearly demonstrates the principle of gentleness overcoming violence." Lao Tzu
The essence of this philosophy is to live like water. Do something without worrying about anything, fill your heart with gratitude and keep going.
