seeking simplicity

Simplicity is not -- as so many think, and, alas, teach -- silliness. Simplicity means not being complicated, not being double in any way, not deluding oneself or anyone else. The first exercise in simplicity is to accept oneself as one is.

There are two tremendous results of this: one is humility; the other is that it enables other people to accept us as we are, and in this there is real charity.
