The essence of Tao

The essence of Tao is emptiness.
He who, while living an apparently normal life, experiences the whole world as an emptiness, is a Jivanmukta. None is afraid of him; he is afraid of none.
 Emptiness may seem like a void, an unimaginable circumstance unto which individuals may seemly perceive that they have fallen into a trap, a never ending limbo of sorts.

or

One can view it as a chance to bide and patiently be alive until the next wave of action is needed.
You name an object a bowl not because of the clay that you decided to make it out of, but the empty space in the middle. 
From great emptiness comes great potential energy. If one were to watch a wave it has to ebb before it is able to flow,or it would just stay still in the current.

So if you feel like you are in limbo-just take a break relax. Your wave is coming back soon.
