You are a midwife, assisting at someone elses birth.
Do good without show or fuss. Facilitate what is happening rather than
what you think ought to be happening.
If you must take the lead, lead so that the mother is helped, yet still free and in charge.
When the baby is born, the mother will rightly say: We did it ourselves!
~Tao Te Ching
