Simple as it Gets

With tiny houses becoming more and more popular, it seems fitting to have a look at the tiniest one I've seen so far.  This Lego house was made by my grandson Liam one day when we were playing together.  


Doesn't it make you think of how simple life once was?   Making a really cool house in just a few minutes, with just the basics...a dream come true.  Seeing the little house fills me with happiness as I think of the delights of simple fun.

Now that you are grown up enough to read this, you have a lot more layers of reality to deal with, and life doesn't seem quite as simple as it once did.  

Lots to do, to think about, many roles to play, the list goes on and on.  And still, after all the doing and getting has been done, what is it that makes life good?  It's the simple times of enjoyment when nothing much is going on. 

That's the time when your soul cuts loose and you have a feeling of quiet happiness, that nurtures you and your heart.  How to simplify your life, so that you have more of those times, may be something you'd really like to explore.  One step at a time, you can change the overwhelming feeling of having too many things filling up your life, into a feeling of knowing you can handle what comes up, make time for your creative projects, and just enjoy life more in every way.  

Getting organized in new ways that nourish your inner states and feed your creativity is a great process.  It frees up your energy and makes the texture of life more open.  You can have a flow of energy that feels good and supports you in being able to put more into the things that really matter to you.  Do you have a project in writing or the arts that you haven't been able to get going, or keep going?

Find out how to make more time in your life for doing the things you love. 

Believe in your dreams,  and know that life can still hold moments of simple delight.

Best wishes,

Betty
