일어나지도 않은 미래를 걱정하느라 지금을 무겁게 살고 있다면

A single book I had set aside to clear the bookshelf because I had read it too much actually helped empty a greater burden from my heart. Just as accumulating possessions prevents us from moving forward on the path of life, worries about the future filling our minds often tie our steps heavily. By practicing vegetarianism, decluttering, and cutting off things I used to love, I discovered not a sense of stifling frustration, but a clearer sense of liberation than ever before. A life where, instead of making grand preparations for the future, one inevitably finds beauty in the humble things of daily life that one faces every morning. Instead of living this moment heavily worrying about a tomorrow that hasn't even arrived yet, I offer myself a quiet comfort, telling myself that somehow, everything will eventually make it through. I hope you have a night where you boldly exclude unnecessary noise and clutter, and instead shape your life simply and solidly with only the things you truly desire. Thank you for listening to my long story today. ​📍 Bibliographic Information Book Title: Living Simply Author: Dominique Loreau Publisher: Bada Publishing ​🎨 Artwork The illustration in the video is a piece I drew myself, capturing my thoughts and feelings after reading the book.
