The Tao Te Ching inspires individuals to find their purposes. It provides principles for people to understand how things evolve in a dynamic environment and reminds people to respect nature. I first read the Tao Te Ching when I was in high school. Ever since, it gives me courage to welcome challenges and opportunities with hope and faith. It provides a philosophical foundation for me to think thoroughly, practice in depth, reflect holistically, and impact broadly and profoundly.
