TCC Does TCC

After reading the most recent edition of The Vital Force, I thought about Justin and what T’ai Chi Chih has brought to my life and the lives of many of my students. The following poem came as I was doing my morning practice while looking out over our lake; soft rain was falling. I had a wonderful experience. Justin often speaks of someday knowing that “TCC is doing TCC.” I never really knew what that meant until this day.

I watch the raindrops falling

gently into the lake,

The stillness disturbed by

the chickadee’s song.

Soft music playing in the background

In the silence, I realize

T’ai Chi Chih is doing

 T’ai Chi Chih.
