Taoism chapter 2 comparison

In this chapter, I think Tao is trying to say that comparison always exist. Because in order to define
beauty there should be ugly, so I think the comparison makes us to judge something between moral and immoral. Also Tao says that true scholars do not teach their followers, but instead they lead their followers
by example. The true scholars sometimes may experience harsh obstacles, but they should get over it too.
Although those harsh obstacles gives hard time, the work is not done for individual but for the whole world. I liked this chapter because it gives moral lesson that is essential to know about, but it doesn't force specific understanding but shows the necessity of understanding the idea.
