I’ve been studying Taoism here and there lately, and I’m fascinated by the concept of wu wei: the concept of knowing when action is necessary and when it isn’t.
Cheesy though it may be, I am strongly considering getting some Taoist principle as a tattoo to commemorate my thirtieth birthday. I’ve never been particularly religious, but I believe a small, permanent affirmation would be a good way to look forward to adulthood and beyond.
