Simplicity

It is truly a gift to be simple. This means being uncomplicated. Simplicity means coming to the least common denominator of self. As we grow, we literally put on layers of behaviors, attitudes, and styles which we present to the world. They hide our insecurities, fears, and inhibitions. In our age, the acquisition of commodities replaces the building of forts, castles, and fortresses behind which we can hide. Simplicity involves removing as many of these things as possible in order to be seen just as we are. Mostly, it allows us to see ourselves. - Author unknown
