All That Remains

by Justin Yu

Learn to live in the darkness,
so you will not be blinded in the light.
Learn to forget,
or you will not know what to remember.


Learn to be alone,
so  you will cherish your time with others.
Learn to die and pass on,
and your life will have so much more meaning.


Learn to be like a river,
Flowing free without distractions.
Learn to be like a river,
and all your stress and pain will wash away.


Learn to accept,
and peace will find you.
For the Tao is all that remains
In a world that is ever-changing.

  1. I like how you focused on the idea of learning and seeking knowledge to understand the Tao.

  2. I liked how you used opposites, and they actually made logical sense. You also added the new idea that the Tao is "all that remains"in a world that is ever-changing."
