The Simplicity in Living Deep
But inner calm comes not from keeping busy hands
We stuff our lives with so much unnecessary clutter
Chasing distraction to drown out our inner chatter
But inner calm comes not from keeping busy hands
It dwells in spaces between, where silence stands
Purity lies not in excess or constant doing
Your soul prefers stillness, time for renewing
Simplifying outward frees your mind’s range
Reveals life’s depth and your spirit’s change
When preconceptions of “having it all” release
You find meaning grows where stress seeks to cease
Focus on meaning, not status or appearances
Discover your truth in reflective silences
Deeper questions surface without noise to hush
Surface living fades, life’s core you now flush
Pared down outside lets your within gleam through
Unfettered by stuff, you come into view
Refuge from frenzy in stillness you’ll know
Your soul’s sacred garden can flower and grow
True luxury isn’t things that clutter your way
It’s spaciousness inside for each new day
