This clan would soon come to be recognized as the Anasazi or, the “Ancient One’s”, by researchers who studied in depth their culture and geographical movements.

The title can be translated as “the classical book about the Way and its power.” The Daodejing, also known as the Tao Te Ching, has a significant impact on the Chinese culture today (Molloy). Another significant contributor to Daoism was Zhuangzi (Chuang Tzu). His writings, called Zhuangzi, are a collection of creative writings. It is composed of sever “inner chapters

While trying to find a piece of art I could connect with I knew it had to relate to Colorado somehow. My first visit to Colorado was a wonderful trip. I was fascinated from the wonders of that state. Even that Colorado itself is mainly known for the mountains, lakes and incredible scenery, there is plenty of art that can be seen in downtown Denver.  One of the first sculpture that attracted my attention was Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu is a massive public sculpture. With its reddish color, the soaring steel

everywhere and it is very important. While reading Lao Tzu’s Tao Te Ching, Sun Tzu’s The Art of War, Mencius’ Man’s Nature Is Good, and Hsün Tzu Man’s Nature is Evil I was able to relate many of the things that all writers had to say with nursing, which is my current major in school.
