 The 37th Wellness

Moderation, whose stylized symbol is the Taijitu (the yin/yang symbol). I am balanced.

Avoid the extreme in all things. Instead, seek balance, as far toward the middle-of-the-road as possible. 

Avoid thinking in terms of absolutes. For example, we view the rape of an infant as unthinkably bad, but we fail to appreciate that it is good for the rapist. 

However, had the rapist taken the middle road he might have accepted an object in place of the infant.  

Seek moderation, the mean, the average when you can in all things.

The person I admire is Lau Tzu, the founder of Taoism
