Simple

Why simple?

I chose a simple life. Not by fashion, nor by renunciation, but by necessity of returning to something more essential.

To what I am when I'm not rushed. To what I feel when I'm not distracted.

Living simple is questioning accumulation, constant noise, directionless haste. It's learning to be comfortable in silence, to value empty time, to care about attention as a scarce good.

I don't have all the answers, but there's something in slowness, in nature, in craftsmanship, that brings me back home.

Sometimes I wonder:

How much do I really need?

What habits do I consume… and which consume me?

Living simple is not having less. It's being more present.

And that —at least today— is enough for me.
