Let's Keep This One Simple - Tumblr Posts
always room for words from the old man.
- Lao Tzu
I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.
I freely admit that I am a Sam fanboy. Simple things, friends, simple things.
One of the most frustrating things for me is dealing with people who constantly complain about anxiety and depression and expect that some words from me can help but will not even do simple things like get more sleep, eat a healthy diet, take a 30 minute walk at dusk or meditate for 20 minutes a day. They are in a prison of their own making with the key in their hands. Yes, these simple things can change lives.
This is the need for discernment.
I often refer to these images from the HSBC ads a few years ago to talk about interpretation of images/symbols in artworks and how our experiences can alter how we read things.
