Simplicity


I originally posted this to my other site account on January 20/08.

Simplicity and renunciation are acts of compassion – for ourselves, for the world around us. " Simplicity in our lifestyle expresses a care and compassion for the world.Simplicity in our hearts, letting go of opinions and craving, is an act of compassion for ourselves. When we let go of yearning for the future, preoccupation with the past, and strategies to protect the present, there is nowhere left to go but where we are. To connect with the present moment is to begin to appreciate the beauty of true simplicity.
