I think I'll borrow it for next year, as I have a year's worth of collected clutter to clear away (it's neatly tucked in boxes etc. so easy to ignore, but I still know it's there.) <br /><br />Your writing commitment is realistic and somewhat similar to mine. I'm using a timer most days when I'm able to set aside time for writing and on weeks like this one where I've been clearing the deck for a short holiday, don't berate myself when I haven't written much that's new. Being gentle with myself helps me to simplify as well... just get up and try again.<br /><br />Congratulations on your 25 poems!Violet N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16586574800230604652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6243430375503775910.post-46370106288482640882016-03-17T12:57:20.569-07:002016-03-17T12:57:20.569-07:00Linda, first of all thank you for shedding light o...Linda, first of all thank you for shedding light on the word simplify as you see it. The word has impacted me and my lifestyle. Somedays, I feel like there is too much on my plate and not enough time. Other times, I enjoy the simplicity of quiet time. The yoga studio gives me pause time and now my new writing/sitting room offers a simple place without cluttered papers or piles of books. One thought at a time works so well but time does not allow for this on most days. Here's to a simpler life is right!Carol Varsalonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02589714711155938528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6243430375503775910.post-5845331407638736992016-03-17T06:17:53.820-07:002016-03-17T06:17:53.820-07:00Thank you for sharing your OLW with us!

I especially like that you have internalized simplifying; I've been looking only at the externals. Thank you for reminding me that BALANCE is a key: "I'm trying to find a balance I can live with." When I set unrealistic expectations for myself to simplify my material possessions, I stop before I start. God bless you!
