The four tenets of Bohemian Taoism - a Lips family original philosophpy from Jon and Christie and adapted by Me, Ned Lips.
1. Be in integrity with yourself
"Integrity is one of several paths. It distinguishes itself by being the right path, and the one upon which you can never become lost." MH McKee
2. Honor what is and others
"You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need." Mick Jagger
3. Do what you are inspired to do today
"The past is too unpredictable and the future completely uncontrollable. Live for the now for that is all there really is." Ned Lips
"Do or do not, there is no try." Yoda.
"If you have the chance to sit it out or dance - dance." Some song I can't remember.
4. (My adjustment to Jon and Christie's) Be as excellent as you wish to be, for you can be.
"Excellence is the result of caring more than others think is wise; risking more than others think is safe; dreaming more than others think is practical; and expecting more than others think is possible." Anonymous
