Simplicity
Real happiness is not found in material things.
Material things offer but fleeting happiness.
Some people become obsessed with them.
So obsessed that they forget
what life is all about.
So obsessed that they do not mind
ruining or destroying the lives of others
to get more money and ever more material things.
Real happiness is found in simplicity.
Simplicity as a way of life.
It is understanding that life is
a voyage to a destination
where nothing material matters.
Simplicity is putting people first.
It is knowing that friendship and love
are the main ingredients of a happy life.
It is knowing that friendship and love
cannot be expressed in terms of money.
Simplicity is still knowing what Nature is.
It is trying to live in harmony with her.
It is feeling grateful for the abundance
of sensations she lets us experience.
It is knowing that without Nature
all material things become worthless.
