The Tao

When I was sixteen I swore I knew most of everything. 
I thought I could have everything my way. 
Then I learned Tao is not selfish.

When I was seventeen I fell in love. 
I was certain about the path I would take with him.
Then I learned Tao is not jealous.

When I was eighteen I became addicted to depression. 
I didn't feel like there was a way for me to continue on.
Then I learned Tao is not self-destructive.

When I was nineteen I emerged from a dark place. 
I became knowledgable in the ways people wanted me to think.
Then I learned Tao can not be told.

Tao is internal. 
It can not be taught. 
It just is. 
I have finally learned with out learning exactlly what Tao is. 
The best way to get there is to exhibit no action. 
For no action is the greatest action. 
This is Tao.
I will find the way, the Tao, when I stop looking
