Many people have complicated lives
drama, crisis and all sorts of strife
I prefer to minimize the carry on
try to ensure that I simplify my life
When things become complicated
too busy, difficult or too many rules
I step back and watch what unfolds
Assess if it’s worth the involvement
Or just step back and let it flow
One motto I tend to use as a rule
is “too many rules = being fools”
If something is meant to happen
It will develop organically
if there is too much force
or squeezing is it worth it?
Life requires less not more!
DP: Complication
I absolutely love and agree with the message of this poem. It is so relevant to how I am navigating life – organic growth is so beautiful and pure, everything else brings the question ‘is it even worth it?”

The only thing I brought back from my holiday was a special local Jam, some shells, and I send myself a dated postcard. Well that and photos 😉

Good sound advice. I want to step away from my mum for now but I cannot seem to do it as there is no one else. Her personality changes is maddening

sounds like her memory might be going or her meds are interacting … get both checked?

Her personality has changed and she has become very vicious to the point of making trouble
