Simply Life

People try to make life harder than it needs to be.  Endless tasks to do.  Always on the run.  At what point is too much, too much?  When was the last time you consciously slowed down and took a moment to just be.
Will it matter in ten years if the dishes don't get done until tomorrow? 
It is okay to step away by playing catch or running around and being silly with your kids.

There was a time when I found myself rushing to get to work, worried about being late.  Then one day I decided to take my sweet time before going into the office.  I took my dogs out a little longer than usual.  I put conscious thought into my morning tasks taking my time to do so.  Funny thing was that I found myself arriving on time just as I would have if I had rushed.
Everything seemed to fall right into place when I relaxed and took the time to enjoy my life one lovely moment at a time. 

Chris Canton says:
"Simplify the complex as much as possible, and you'll be fine."

Eleanor Roosevelt says:
"A little simplicity would be the first step toward rational living, I think."

Plato says:
“Beauty of style and harmony and grace and good rhythm depend on simplicity.” 
 

Word of the Day~ Create

To create means to bring something into existence. To cause something to happen as a result of one's actions.  To give rise, to produce.

Your actions, in every moment of the day, are creating your universe. 
If you bring a bad attitude to the table, it may not be such an easy existence for you. 
What are you producing with rushing around from place to place, being rude to strangers, or yelling at your children?  You are in your world stuck with what you created around you.  But, there is hope because you are never truly stuck with what you have....you can change your mind at any time and start creating a different scene.  There is always time to pivot to a new thought, idea, or action.  Freedom is yours by creating what you really want. 

Louise Hay says:
"Every thought we think is creating the future."

Henri Bergson says:
"To exist is to change; to change is to mature; to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly."

Word of the Day~ Choice

~Every moment of the day brings a possibility to make choices. 
~The amazing thing about life is that we have the choice to change or minds if we want to. 
~If you don't make a choice, one will be chosen for you, so doing nothing is still a choice.
~Your choice will be reflected in the outcome. 
~Choosing happiness will bring you happiness.  Choosing to be sad and self defeating, will make life be as such.

Albert Cumas says:
"Life is the sum of all of your choices."

Flora Whittemore says:
"The doors we open and close each day decide the lives we live."

T.S. Elliot says:
"In a minute there is time for decisions and revisions which minute will reverse."
