Dao, Way of Life, in Extreme Cursive Style 狂草
老子第一章；
道可道非常（恆）道，名可名非常（恆）名。

Dao, Way of Life, in Standard Script 楷書
Dao means "Road", or "Way of Life" that people choose to follow. Its etymological sources come from 目 (eye) and 走 (stride). In other words, one strides along with eyes open in search of the right path to pursue.
What is your Dao? As you are striding along please keep your eyes wide open and you may find it.

My most favorite section in Lao Tzu (Section 33)
老子道德經三十三節
知人者智，自知者明，勝人者有力，自勝者強，知足者富，強行者有志，不失其所者久，死而不忘者壽。
Knowing others is wise; knowing yourself is bright; conquering others is powerful; surpassing oneself is strong; feeling contented is rich; pushing forward with force is ambitious; finding one's own center lasts long; being remembered after death is longevity.
Yuan-Min Tao's most famous line
陶淵明詩句；

悠然見南山 I happily notice the South Mountain.
Stone Drum Script 石鼓文
靈禽鳴旭日

Swimming fish enjoys the deep water.
