The teaching is about Lao Tze's message to fellow followers.
Gratitude. There was this woman who has 2 adult sons. One of them is into Ice-Cream biz while the other one is selling umbrella. Whenever there's change of weather, the woman would feel bad about the other son which would not be able to make good business. Lao Tze's message is simple. He's saying that we should see what we have and not looking at what we don't have. for example, the woman should have look on the bright side and cheerful that the other son is able to make a business.
Quiet and speech less? This one is a bit vague. I think Lao Tze's message is to ask us not to gossip and speak what is truthful so that we can gain respect from everyone.
Responsibility. A young girl had to carry her brother for miles since he is sick. then when she arrived at the clinic, she was asked "Girl, are u tired?" The girl said no because she didn't see her brother as burden. Just plainly, she said "cos he is my brother". if you would just attend to your obligations as if they were your life, you will not feel that it is a burden.
We have been enlightened and we should continue to keep our heart lit on so that we r bright from within and so, we will shine like Lao Mu does. :D
