I have long been a lover of Zhuangzi. There is much we Christians can learn from him and Laozi, etc. Thomas Merton was certainly right about that much. Thank you very much for the quote.
I was just thinking this morning in reflecting on the Psalms and (in this case) Isaiah...human beings had it better figured out 2500 or so years ago, by far, than we do now. We are spoiled children.
Much food for reflection here as always, but what I most immediately appreciated was the image you attached. It was especially appreciated in the wake of two grueling weeks spent in the heat of my garage, pushing bookshelves around and reorganizing the thousands of books that I have out there!

I hope all is well with you. -Jack
