The perfect way is only difficult for those who pick and choose. Do not like, do not dislike all will then be clear. Make a hairbreadth difference and heaven and earth are set apart if you want the truth to stand clear before you, never be for or against. The struggle between 'for' and 'against' is the mind's worst disease.
Bruce Lee

Voidness is that which stands right in the middle between this and that. The void is all-inclusive, having no opposite--there is nothing which it excludes or opposes. It is living void, because all forms come out of it and whoever realizes the void is filled with life and power and the love of all beings.

If you want to do your duty properly, you should do just a little more than that.
