The Simple Life
The quality of your life is brought about by the quality of your thinking.
After a series of events today, I realized how much I want a simple life. And when I say simple, I don’t mean moving to a farm and canning. I mean a life free of chaos, discord and discontent. Without any hard evidence to back this up, I would say the vast majority of adults are miserable. Miserable because of their environment or most likely, miserable because of the quality of their thoughts and actions.
People are always running here, there, doing this or that. Not for any particular purpose but because we have been taught that activity = productivity = success and happiness. It has been reinforced in my mind today that there is nothing wrong with being still. Being still doesn’t mean that you’re unmotivated or lazy.
I hurt for people who are so miserable and filled with rage that it manifests itself in all that they do. Discord and chaos follows them wherever they go and shows up in whatever they do. It’s very sad to witness, I was reminded of that just today.
What is wonderful is to have an awakening while you can actually do something about it…some people never see the truth in life.
It’s never too late or too early to live a life of purpose and joy…never!
