“It is a gift to be simple.
It is a gift to be free. “
So goes an old song.
The color of life and its festivity
Depends on how we look at it
through our own lens and perception.
Leading simple life does not imply
Isolation or seclusion
Or living on beans only and
Avoiding the simplest pleasures of life.
We should not allow others
To mess up our life at any time
I have just stumbled upon
An interesting quote
By an English novelist
And playwright, Jerome Klapka
On the art of simple life.
“Let your boat of life be light,
Packed with only what you need-
A homely home and simple pleasures ,
One or two friends worth the name,
Some one to love and
Someone to love you.
A cat , a dog and
A pipe or two.
Enough to eat and
Enough to wear and
A little more than
Enough to drink,
For thirst is the dangerous thing.”
