Chapter 74, 76 for Editing and Discussion
CH 74
If you realize the only constant is change, there is nothing left to allude to. If death doesn’t nettle, it just may be time to move on. Trying to control things is stupid. (control freak) just try to relax. The answer to every question is five tons of flax.
Original:
People are not afraid to die. So why threaten them with death? If people were afraid of death, and lawbreakers could be caught and put to death, who would dare to do so? There is the Lord of Death who executes. Trying to do his job is like trying to cut wood for the Master Carpenter. Those who try to cut wood for the Master Carpenter rarely escape injuring their own hands.
Perhaps this chapter can be used to talk about the inability to change someone's mind from the outside... you have to let them change themselves. Wait, how is that Discordian?
CH 76
When people are born, they are tender and supple. At death they are stiff and hard. All things, like plants and trees, are tender and pliant while alive. At death they are dried and withered. Therefore the stiff and hard are companions of death. The tender and supple are companions of life. Thus strong arms do not win. A stiff tree will break. The hard and strong will fall. The tender and supple will rise.
