If I have offended you in one way or another during these couples of days,I am sorry, give me some slack.

I'll cut you a whole bunch of slack. That's just simply acceptance. I'd quote a verse about acceptance from the Dao de Jing about acceptance, but then we'd be creeping even further away from the topic of "America's image." And everyone would start thinking I was 怪人(an eccentric fellow).

I would say almost anyone can benefit from it if they bring an open mind. But I'm biased that way. Very Happy

Really? but you once said that you were sick of discussing with me. Laughing

Anyway, thank you for the compliment! and I am glad that you have become one of my fans.

Thanks, fan.

You find the true Dao by searching for it.
