Simplicity Enhances Peace

Written by Kathy on . Posted in Simplicity

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA Being at peace is a gift that can be hard to maintain in our society, and I think as Americans, we tend to have a difficult time with this concept. Everything seems to have an urgency and it has become “normal” to have stress and feel overwhelmed. One way to bring about peace is to keep things simple and although that should be an easy task, I know from (regular) first-hand experience that there can be a tendency to complicate even the smallest things. But learning how to “dumb things down” carries with it a definite benefit. Cultivating simplicity thankfully brings with it a sense of peace that can generate positive ripples through your entire life, not to mention your to do list. Whether we’re talking about business or just life in general, the goals and plans we make for ourselves can and should require help from others, but we must first identify and admit there is a need in order to receive support. Asking for help is a big step that’s well worth the effort. We should remember to be still and at peace whenever possible to allow the fullness of life to live within and through us, and if that requires us to ask for help…so be it.
