Simplicity
| April 9, 2014
I dream of simplicity, but I'm as far
from it as ever. That is my practice, how to be in the world and remain
simple. One day perhaps I'll accept the fact that I am never going to
find the simple life. Maybe the first step toward simplicity will be to
accept that my life will never be simple even if I go live in a cave and
subsist on green nettles like Milarepa.
—Peter Matthiessen, "Emptying the Bell"
