“ Nature is pleased with simplicity.”–Sir Isaac Newton An English philosopher, Jeremy Bentham said that human beings are under the sovereignty of two masters; pain and pleasure. It is true that we are pleasure seeking and pain avoiding creatures by nature! But remember nature is pleased with simplicity, don’t you think our lives would be more easier if we tried not to complicate things? Yes, life is not easy but why complicate it more than it already is?! Why can’t we try to loosen up and only seek happiness for ourselves and everyone around us?  Aristotle said that for human beings to be happy they ought to avoid extremes and drive for the mean in all their actions. But the reason why most of us can’t be happy is because we settle for less or itch for too much.  We all love to sit under a cool weather and nobody likes it when it rains too much or when there’s sun burn, we like the moderation.  Same  thing with life, don’t settle for cowardice or go for rashness when...

  Who doesn’t like a sunset?! Sitting comfortably and peacefully watching the sun set is the most beautiful thing one can experience at the end of the day.

We should learn to let go, not only the things we like but also those that are of no importance to us that we don’t know how to free ourselves from. Our fears, our anger, our bad habits, unhealthy relationships, unproductive jobs, the bad company, the constant desire...

Eyes closed. Imagine floating on water, the wind blowing the silence of day, your body and mind lighter than a feather! The simple thought of that eases the mind and lifts a weight from the heart. You might be busy with work, stressed with life issues, feeling emotionally exhausted, wanting an escape from the life you’re living but can’t seem to know what to do with your life anymore, you are at a point where you can’t even find the power to pray, you can’t find who to confide in, you’ve accepted there’s nothing that would change your situation, you’ve decided to let everything happening to you change the course of your life.  I want you to float, let whatever you’re going through be your water, float on it, let your body loosen up, make your heart and mind lighter, allow silence to invade your space then feel the blow of the wind. For you to survive the tides you need to stay calm and work out which direction the current is taking you, fighting it directly would rapidly tire you o...
