For this is it!
It is there when you are lost within it,

Awesome posts Tao. I agree about philosophy on the road to non-philosophy as I have a philosophy degree which seems meaningless now, though was completely necessary to "get" where I am now. It's like the path to realizing there is no path. Thanks for the great comments.
