Simplify--Simple Living, High Thinking

Ah,to simplify,the new buzz word,the bumper sticker,the popular subject of articles in a variety
of glossy mags. 

To simplify means more than just cleaning off your desk or getting rid of accumulated "stuff".

When you truly simplify it effects every aspect of your life: 

this includes something as seemingly innocuous as what and how much you eat,
how you spend your time,what you buy and don't buy,

where and how you live, what you do with your body.

There are more aspects to simplifying which will be discussed in future posts as well as the ones

I've mentioned above.

Those desiring true peace and contentment must begin the process 

of simplifying.There is no other way to go about it.

Consider the following in regards to simplifying:
At the start of the day do you feel that the majority of your waking hours are already

committed to doing something or being somewhere? I am including your "days off" here also.
Could you take a job tomorrow that was more to your liking but paying 5 or 10,000 dollars less a year?
When was the last time you spent more than two hours in the woods or a park?
When was the last time you were in an area that was quiet,
meaning free from phones,televisions and radios?
Are you overweight,fat?
Do you drink too much alcohol?
Do you eat too much?
Do you eat denatured,unnatural foods?
Do you take what they call recreational drugs,most notable of which is marijuana?
How much time do you spend in front of the television or computer during the course of a day?
Are you preoccupied with watching professional sports?
How often do you read a book.
Do you exercise,if so,how much,how often?
Believe it or not the way to true peace and contentment has a lot to do with the questions

I just asked.

You will see this as the days pass.
