Don\u2019t be too busy to take a snapshot of simplicity today. Simplicity is missed in a so-called busy life. When someone you love passes away, you remember the precious moments of just being<\/em> together. You miss the sound of their voice, or just having their quiet presence around you. Significance is rare, \u201cordinary\u201d is what life is made of. Even the president of The United States talks on the phone, goes to meetings, answers emails, and engages in common things, just like you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Don\u2019t be concerned about getting somewhere significant or about being someone of great importance. There\u2019s really no such thing. You can only be in the moment, being yourself, and doing your thing. Important artists saw beauty everywhere, they stopped life\u2019s busyness, and they saw something amazing in sunlight, reflecting on a bowl of fruit, or in \u201ccommon folk\u201d working in a field. Appreciate a so-called inanimate object, or notice the comfort of the chair you are sitting on. Appreciate common simplicity, everyday<\/strong>. Take a snapshot of it – it\u2019s art. In 20 years, all you can do is be in the present moment – that never changes. You\u2019ll still wake up each day, eat breakfast, and go about your \u201cnormal\u201d activities. But the scenes, and the seasons will change. Your appreciation of what seems ordinary will grow more deeply as you age. Notice how beautiful today is, at a micro-level of detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nothing is too<\/em> ordinary. You might be surprised at how much beauty, wonder and presence you\u2019ll find in the simplest objects and in the easiest tasks. Look at your life (and people) as a wonderful, artistic tapestry of snapshots. Each scene is passing by, but don\u2019t rush it along – soak in more<\/em> detail. Life is always extraordinary when you pay closer attention to its simplicity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Wednesday, June 1, 2022 Don\u2019t be too busy to take a snapshot of simplicity today.
