Tao Te Ching Cap. 64 — Deja De Planificar Y Empieza A Caminar — Taoismo

"A journey of a thousand miles begins beneath your feet." The most famous phrase in the Tao Te Ching... and the most misunderstood. Chapter 64 isn't a motivational message about daring to begin. It's a profound teaching about the small, the fragile, and what's already beneath your feet.
