In a time when everything is increasing, become less.
Perhaps you feel it too. Outside, it’s wild and crowded, loud and fast, frightening and threatening. The outside world is overloaded with information and images, and so are we.
So much is simply TOO MUCH.
Therefore, many people are exhausted and anxious again and are reaching or have reached their personal limits. On top of that, there’s the colorful, garish, and loud world of social media.
You have to optimize yourself, work on yourself, regulate your nervous system, be angry, be successful, be spiritual, or turn away from the spiritual bubble because we’re suddenly realizing that it’s nothing after all… and so on and so forth.
So much “must” is conveyed to us. Again, TOO MUCH.
I myself feel that less is doing me much better right now.
I hardly even look at social media anymore… So much of it seems somehow wrong to me. There’s too much shouting, too much condemnation, too blatant advertising, too careless devaluation… it’s either a glittering world, a world of drama, or a world of sales.
But this is no longer my world. These days, I’m asking myself:
What do we really need?
What do I really need?
What will help us right now in this time?
I personally feel that less is more for me right now. I’m cutting back on quite a few things. And in this reduction, I’m rediscovering what’s truly important to me. I suspect that this year will teach us to recognize what is essential and truly valuable.
Out of the loud, colorful world of excess. Into pure, true life.
Perhaps you’d like to ask yourself: What do I really need?
What has true value for me?
What do I want and can I reduce myself to?
Less is sometimes more.
