[quote=LEONARDO,258267]"Funny, but a lot of people cannot do anything without thinking what other people will say about them and then they wonder why they are stressed and unhappy." SHESGOTTOBE, I agree with you. However, in understanding Lao Tzu's word, we should be flexible. We should not care too much about others' approval, nor care it at all. If we care too much, we "will be their prisoners". If we do not care about other's approval at all, we will be lone hands or even worse foes of average people who act arbitrarily. Human being lives a gregarious lifestyle, which is the most intricate lifestyle. BTW, the version you offered is a nice one. Thanks for sharing with us. I do want to hear your opinion on the relationship between our well-being (happiness) and material possessions? [/quote]
