If you see, feel or think that every experience you have, from eating a sandwich to smelling a flower is an extraordinary thing you will see life through a different lens.

Take time to pause in your day to day routine and think about the simple yet powerful miracles that are all around you. You have food in a can that you can just open and eat, everyone does not have that.

We live our lives in clutter. We collect things, we fill our homes with more, more food, more drink. We fill our minds with more, more news, more knowledge, more chatter.

And yet, none of it satisfies, none of it solves problems, none of it creates solutions. None of it brings peace. Because we forget that simple is extraordinary.

The simple joy of laughter, the simple beauty of a flower. The simple pleasure from a bite of fresh, simply prepared food. The simple feeling of satisfaction from finding a small treasure hidden in the back of a thrift store. The simple calm from being in an uncluttered surrounding.

The simple truth of the simple truth – that children will innocently tell you. The simple hug or the simple kiss of real love from a friend or partner. The simple warmth of the sun on your face.

These are things that give you and the world the simple answers to the complex questions we create. The fact of the matter is – there really are simple answers, you just have to break down the complex, the clutter and tackle things one simple and extraordinary thing at a time.
