The true people of old knew nothing about loving life or hating death. When they were born, they felt no elation. When they entered death, there was no sorrow. Carefree they went. Carefree they came. That was all. They did not forget their beginning and did not seek their end. They accepted what they were given with delight, and when it was gone, they gave it no more thought.
