SIMPLICITY . . .
This is a concept we meditate on regularly. Our personal and professional lives always seem to swing back around to figuring out how to distill things down to the bare essentials. Because simplicity brings clarity. And the amount of work it takes to find it, plus the continual need to keep working at the finding, proves that simplicity is far from easy. Turns out, it takes a lot of work to make things as simple as possible.
Around every corner, there is an opportunity to complicate things. Plans to make, things to buy, promises of objects or products or projects that will make life easier and better.
We get caught in that cycle as often as the next person. But when we think on it, seems like it's always the same free-ish things that bring us the most pleasure: spending time with people we love, soaking up the natural world, slowing down (even napping), sharing conversations, watching the sun rise and set.
In the busy-ness of springtime, as you make plans for your summer and how you most want to spend it, here's to finding your simplicity,
