Not strictly related to simple living, but I just wanted to put this out there as reminder, because it is so easy to forget or to be persuaded otherwise. You are enough just as your are.

Don’t be pulled into the illusion that life is complex and that there is a high bar to measure up to. We all have faults, vices, and setbacks. But every day is a new day and you’re still here. The sunrises, the birds sing, and the earth turns. You’re still you, and that’s enough.

Love yourself and love others. Be kind to yourself and others. Be compassionate to yourself and others. You are enough.
