Our life is frittered away by detail. An honest man has hardly need to count more than his ten fingers, or in extreme cases he may add his ten toes, and lump the rest. Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity! 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 thumb-nail. Simplify, simplify. Instead of three meals a day, if it be necessary eat but one; instead of a hundred dishes, five; and reduce other things in proportion.
"Where I lived, And What I Lived For"
Those are powerful words. We clutter and over complicate everything. "Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity." I respect that and I am learning to love it. Resourcefulness and simplicity are an innate part of Dominican culture and I am quickly falling in love with their simplistic way of life. Nature is our home, nature is our gift, and above all, nature is our sanctuary and connector to the Creator.
