Yesterday, I was clever so I wanted to change the world

Yesterday I was clever so I wanted to change the world. Today i am wise, so I am changing myself. Jalal ad-din Rumi

Is reaching grand achievements seems futile when in the process you feel tired, burnt out, absolutely dissatisfied with some aspects of your life? What about feeling joy every steps of the way.

It is while making art, focusing on the process as opposed to the end outputs that people feel the most bliss and joy. It is through this process that they moved from cleverness to wisdom as they realised that their only purpose is joy. As internal desires are attuned to joy, the external world just transform itself as we welcomed with open arms change.

Missminimalist , Thank you

I was hooked to missminimalist blogs in the past four days, reading approximately 16 pages of individuals testimonies on how they started and enjoyed their minimalist journey. It opened my eyes on the endless minimalist lifestyles that any of us can implement. I admire the traveller, the spiritualist, the true materialist (as opposed to consumerist), the mindful, the artist, the mum, the dad, the designer who with intention choose to keep the things that add value to his/her life and get rid of the frivolous. Beyond just getting rid of things, there is not participating to our current wasteful society, it is recognising that we are all equal regardless of what we own and finally it is embracing freedom. It is why I love it. I encourage you to have a read/rid, I hope it will inspire you:  http://www.missminimalist.com/
