Through the lens of Taoist philosophy, discover why simplicity is seen as a deeper wisdom, a primordial intelligence guiding us to live authentically, like trees growing naturally toward the sun.David invites us to reflect on the parts of our lives we've over-carved, urging us to embrace simplicity as a way of life.
