What will you find right around the corner ?? Will you knock on me and said sorry??....do you think is simple or complex to think that way ??

if i turn a corner, is that simple or complex?

Sally Ang said...

Well,what makes it complex and simple ...maybe the reasons and the consequences of you turning the corner....hope that the corner we all turn will help us to make good fortunes :)....

and is good fortune simple or complex?

Its very complex to be simple in this complex world, is probably the answer you will get

anne artist said...

oddly enough there is a simplicity to complexity, if complexity becomes the norm of one's life. and recreating simplicity can be a complex challenge.

and if one does create simplicity, then does one fit into the day to day world?

I am thinking that living in simple ways are so much better ...you just focus on those things that matters most to you....thus whether is simple nor complex ....is not that important anymore ...becos whether is complex or simple ....it is something that you treasure ...that you know that is worth putting in efforts or your heart :)

anne artist said...

ah, so there is something that transcends simplicity and complexity, and shifts the attention to another way of regarding one's day to day life......that which i treasure.

it is interesting that in these times when we ask how to simplify, perhaps we miss the question......how to experience the life in our lives.

Anne, like your comment "Perhaps we miss the question...how to experience the life in our lives"....perhaps in the complex world, we come to appreciate the simple things in life ....the cries of little girls and boys, the smiles of the wrinked old ladies and men ....the trees and birds in the natural :)

anne artist said...

and even the tree........that which might seem so simple......is not a tree complex as well?

can i simply be with that which is complex?

Sally Ang said...

Simply be complex and you can be with that complex tree ...haha ...but i always think that trees are not complex ...but they are strong in their simplicity thus making them complex :)

anne artist said...

strength within simplicity.......can be so complex that it can only be simple............
