KISS, KEEP IT SIMPLY SUBLIME
by H.M. Johnquest
When asked to contribute a page to an ebook of Tips For Making Life Easier, I had ten days to come up with something. [Download the complete ebook now from www.creatingsoul.com ] I wrote out four loose pages, tightened them into one page, and sent that in at the last minute. Here's the entry which is page seven in the ebook, Tips for Making Life Easier.

Making Life Easier by H.M. Johnquest
It's about making life easier, not taking life easier. It takes work to make it easy. Preparation. Guidance. Friends. Visibility. Tenacity. Vision. These things involve purposeful effort. But how do you put it all together? Easy. It's in the old anacronym with a new spin. KISS! KEEP IT SIMPLY SUBLIME, you sage, you.
Already you've got it going on, maybe too much, or you wouldn't want to make IT easier. So let's look at this new KISS. Focus. KEEP your eyes and actions on what you know needs to be done. Don't get sidetracked. Go for the goal. KEEP IT going.
IT is your life, your world. IT is what you make IT. IT is your responsibility. IT is your behavior and the results of your behavior. Own your feelings, thoughts and prayers, even if esoteric, you are projecting potential futures. Choices today forecast more choices for tomorrow. Once you realize your responsibilitiy, you become increasingly more response-able.
SIMPLY SUBLIME. How wonderful is that! start by streamlining. Eliminate the clutter you rummage through life with. Look for the good in others and self and you'll find it. What is SUBLIME anyway? My little dictionary says it's "exalted; lofty; inspiring awe; impressive; moving." But bigger dictionaries define SUBLIME in epiphany-like terms; state of lofty exaltation; elevating in dignity or honor; "to render finer as in purity or excellence." To make life easier the key is in the making. So, sage, KEEP IT SIMPLY SUBLIME. c.2007, H.M.J.

This is truly Sublime, Harry!
Someone wise had told me this recently, that keeping things simple, staying free, unencumbered, being able to travel - and to tread - lightly is the natural and healthy way to live.
We tend to stockpile, to over-consume, and to bear burdens that weigh us down.
It's time to break free, and as Summer will end soon - the last day of Summer is September 21, the time of migration is upon us - it's time to define our essentials and to fly lightly into the future!
