Simplicity

The idea of simplicity haunts me. It takes over. 

A slow life. 

A calm morning. 

No rushing. 

No fighting. 

The fight to be more, do more. Prove yourself – they shout at you. 

But I step back. 

I watch the wind blow through the leaves. 

I listen to what is being said: be slow, be calm.  Just be. 

The dream of simplicity is taking over me – watching flowers bloom, seasons change, waves crash. 

It’s all beginning to feel very familiar. 

Deep breathes, quiet mornings, good food and a happy home.
