Aloha Jenn and family!

What a treat to read your post. In gratitude I bow to you all for a desire to lead a life requiring mindfulness on so many levels.

Your post reminds me of something I penned as I began life as a minimalist over 40 years ago . . .

--

Less is more . . .

Less is more, simple is best

as we travel about our quest

to laugh, learn, explore and grow

in touch with Spirit, we shall know

just inside, a whisper away

we need but listen, and to stay

awake, aware, persistent and kind

to what Spirit has in mind...

For each wink, wind, touch and taste

is a lesson to savor, to grace

our lives with light, love and lore

as we uncover our unique store.

So pack light, carry only today

a smile, a bow, a moment to say

thank you, I love you, Namaste

to One and all, in work and play.
