Tao Te Ching Chapter 42

Trans. by J H McDonald

"The Tao gave birth to One.
The One gave birth to Two.

They blend their life breaths
in order to produce harmony."

"There is real emotional danger when it comes to anti-aging marketing and the psyche of children and teenagers," she writes, citing examples of a 14-year-old with a comprehensive routing to "slow down the aging process" and an 18-year-old showing off her Botox. Here's the full story.
