Fools stand on their island of opportunities and look toward another land--Henry David Thoreau

Article #1

“The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.” (Alan Watts)

I have been reflecting on simplicity and I have been holding the simple things in life with a higher regard with each passing day. Simple things can often be taken for granted, these are life's pleasures and gifts that are often around us which are priceless and can be magical.

I have great respect for many of the brilliant minds and people I have met on my research journey, but I have noticed that I am becoming increasingly impressed by those who keep it simple.

I also believe that wisdom is more simple than we care to admit and that intelligence is more subjective than most people realise.

It seems that our expectations of life and living have become too high to be conducive with the beauty and brilliance of simplicity and good living.
