The Little Ox & the Way
Long ago a wise old man named Laozi taught simple secrets about how the world works. Ride along with Little Ox and try them!
上善若水
Be Soft Like Water
Water never argues. Pour it into any cup and it gently becomes that shape. Tap a cup!
Water is soft, yet it can carve through stone. Being gentle is a kind of strong!
无为 · 顺其自然
Let It Grow
A boy once pulled his sprouts to "help" them grow taller. Uh-oh! Try both ways.
Some things just need time. Don't force them — water, wait, and let them be.
柔弱胜刚强
Bend, Don't Break
Here comes a big storm! Watch the stiff stick and the soft grass. Press the wind!
The stiff stick snapped. The bendy grass bowed and sprang back. Soft can outlast strong!
有之以为利 · 无之以为用
The Empty Part Is the Useful Part
Why can a cup hold juice? Because it is empty inside! The "nothing" is what's useful.
A bowl, a room, a cup — the empty space is the part we use. A little empty is a good thing!
千里之行 · 始于足下
One Little Step
A giant mountain looks too big! But Little Ox climbs it one step at a time. Tap to step!
A journey of a thousand miles begins with one small step. Just start — then keep going!
