body lacks hope

i was thinking of this passage out of the Tao Te Ching ch 52 (which by the way this is my translation so there are no copyrights):

Cork its bottle
Obstruct its door
Eventually the body lacks straining.

Open its bottle
Complete its effort
Eventually the body lacks hope.


I'm coming to very much agree...
