Find beauty in the simplicity of being from "summary" of Open Secret by Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī (Maulana)
In the midst of life's chaotic dance, it is easy to lose sight of the beauty that lies in simplicity. We are constantly bombarded with a myriad of distractions, pulling us in different directions and clouding our vision. But if we can take a moment to pause, to quiet the noise within us, we may just catch a glimpse of the profound beauty that exists in the simplicity of being. In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, we often overlook the beauty that surrounds us. We are so preoccupied with chasing after the next big thing, the next achievement or possession, that we fail to appreciate the beauty that lies in the present moment. But if we can learn to let go of our attachments, to strip away the layers of complexity that we have built around ourselves, we may find that true beauty lies in the simplicity of just being. Simplicity does not mean living a bland or uneventful life. It is not about stripping away all the colors and textures that make life vibrant and interesting. Rather, simplicity is about cutting through the noise and clutter to uncover the essence of our existence. It is about finding joy in the little things, in the moments of quiet contemplation, in the stillness of a sunset or the gentle rustling of leaves in the wind. When we learn to embrace simplicity, we free ourselves from the burden of constantly seeking more. We discover that true beauty does not lie in the accumulation of possessions or achievements, but in the moments of connection, in the relationships we build, in the love we give and receive. In the simplicity of being, we find a deep sense of contentment and peace that transcends the fleeting pleasures of material wealth. So, let us take a moment to pause, to breathe in the beauty that surrounds us. Let us open our hearts to the simplicity of being, to the joy that lies in the present moment. And in doing so, may we find that true beauty is not something to be pursued or acquired, but something to be discovered within ourselves.
