One interpretation of Lao Tzu's 31st Chapter of the Tao Te Ching could be avoiding the fight – starting with the fight within us then outwardly toward those we love, then to those we interact and work with in daily life. How do we do this? This was a really good discussion of how the 31st Chapter can help us take the fight out of daily life.

Here is a link to an online version of the Tao Te Ching that we use in every meeting; https://ttc.tasuki.org/display:Year:1972,1988,1996,2004/section:31
