The Simplicity of Life

Life as we know it, is supposed to be simple, nothing to demystify, nothing to over exercise our grey matter, yet we continue to view life as a task that we have to "make it through". My challenge to all is to stop for a minute, take a step back and just live. Life was meant to be uncomplicated by expectations, failure to achieve certain "goods"and love. Lets see life for what it is and take it for just that. The simple fact of waking up in the morning and being able to be should be sufficient for all of us, but its not because we continue to contort ourselves with a view to winning the battle. Of course one cannot discount the "human element" and its impact on our understanding and approach to life and living. The innate need to challenge and indeed conquer life will always win in the end because we are human.

Today, however, I take a stand, I stand for all of us who are unwilling or afraid to commit to being the one human who relaxes in this existence. Glad and grateful for the opportunity to just be.
