Can life be lived with simplicity?
Let’s sit down and think for a minute.
What preoccupies most of our thoughts and time.
Is it spending time playing and talking to our children?
Could it be enjoying our loved ones?
How about going for a walk and reading a good book,
listening to the bird sing or the sound of a crashing wave in the ocean.
Are we doing the things that really make us happy, that fulfill the soul and the spirit?
In the last couple weeks many people have questioned my sanity because I left behind a big home, with lots of land in a city where I learned to appreciate quietness and the beauty of nature.
Although I don’t expect everyone to make the drastic changes I have made or suggest that this is the way to live a simple life, I would like to impress upon you the importance of letting go of those things that occupy unnecessary time or space in your life.
Sometimes in letting go of the unnecessary things, is where we find true fulfillment.
I choose to live a simple life, a life that will remain with me eternally.
*Our lives journey is from the head to the heart. Live each day as if it was your last.
Your friend,
Ivis
"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. " Book of Matthew
