Tao Translation In Modern Words--#17

To be light on your feet,
you need a steady mind.
If your body is active,
your mind needs to be relaxed.

A Master can travel long distances
and still see everything he owns.
He may be surrounded by beauty
but he isn't caught up in it.

Why run around thoughtlessly?
If you act lightly,
you lose your center.
If you act recklessly,
you lose your self-control.
