came down to the command, "To know yourself."

His big idea was that our lives so often go wrong

making snap decisions  based on how they felt.

which means "non-doing"  or "doing nothing."

or the plant that adjusts itself to the shape of a tree.

We can be like water, which is submissive and weak,

But it's still a useful guide for teaching us

with people like Socrates out in the streets

in Ancient Greece asking people real questions
