It is hard to be simple in a complex world. I try to live simply and simply live, and I also try not to be simplistic, so the title I Think You'll Find It's A Bit More Complicated Than That made me smile and pick up Ben Goldacre's book...so far so very interesting. Meanwhile the garden is at it's most abundant and the chair needs rescuing from the alchemilla mollis....

I've often thought that this realisation comes to politicians. They go into it all idealistic, have to toe one line or another, and, if they ever get to actually govern, find out that there is so much more to be taken into account before decisions can be made.

And I often get fed up with being given the simplistic version by the media!

How delightful to see the chair being embraced by nature! The world is undoubtedly becoming more complex, mostly due to technology (in my humble opinion). I dream of a one room, straw bale house in the middle of nowhere - no phones, no computer, no being connected to the grid. Simple - but definitely not easy!

It would be nice to retreat to every now and then!

I often think to live simple and simply live is (as we call it) a 'contradictio in terminis'. Most of the time it is complicated and hard work, requiring many thoughtful decisions. Yet I wouldn't have it any other way.
