"I say, let your affairs be as two or three,

and not a hundred or a thousand, instead of a

million count half a dozen, and keep your

accounts on your thumbnail."

-Henry David Thoreau

 

 ***We have too much, do too much, keep too much,  love too much, buy too much. 

Let us give ourselves the gift of simplicity.***

What can you eliminate from your life.

 

Give us courage and gaiety and the quiet mind.

Spare to us our friends, soften to us our enemies.

Bless us, if it may be, in all our innocent endeavors.

If it may not, give us the strength to encounter

that which is to come,

that we be brave in peril,

constant in tribulation,

temperate in wrath,

and in all changes of fortune

and down to the gates of death,

loyal and loving one to another.

 -Robert Louis Stevenson
