  1. My pet cat has this toy, and it’s the stupidest thing in the fracking world. It’s a letter Z that squeeks. My cat’s name doesn’t even have the letter Z in it, so why the flupp did my wife get it for him?

  2. I really feel like i need to simply simplify my life. everything gets too complex, and i end up so confused. even now, what with all the different people, and everything that’s going one i don’t know how to deal with it all the time. Sometimes I just want to breakdown and find ways to make things different. I want the simple things, like just going out for a walk. I miss going and talking to the trees. Hiking.

  5. In order to simplify your life you must be able to freely associate what you want with what you have. don’t try to work straight through every obstacle without giving in at all. You must make some concessions in order to achieve your higher goals. “It matters not how straight the gait.”

  6. All that junk. I threw it out. Old shirts, not worn for weeks. Dated dresses. Unused toys and shoes. I cut back the plants, their leaves now lay on the floor. I swept up the dust, I polished the furniture. Unused things were tossed aside. Yes, I simplified my life.

  7. Simplify your schedule, your work, your life. All the mental and physical clutter only builds stress upon stress, until it’s stacked and compacted like a ball of coal. But perhaps these are just tests, and with the fire of time you’ll be refined into a diamond.

  8. Ah, the overall goal of my life right now is to simplify and by doing so, hopefully live simply. Butit doesn’t work if only one half of the couple buys into the philosophy and is dedicated to putting it in place – otherwise, the resentment and sense of hopelessness takes the place of pride and progress.

  9. KISS: Keep it simple stupid! That was one of the first things I learned in my PR class at my University. So why is it so difficult?Why do I overthink everything? This is what I will try to answer in this article..

  10. You strip me down. You break me down.
    As if I am a sentence on a page or a screen.
    As if I am the clothes I wear or the shampoo I use.
    I was a brand new pencil
    but you took your knife to my skin
    peeling away layer by layer
    until
    im nothing
    but
    lead. And you throw me into the ocean.
    And I sink.

  11. I just can’t bring myself to eat.
    To pick up food
    to look for it
    to think it
    It doesn’t get more simple

  12. Remove, bare, strip and subtract. Simplify is more complicated than complication. Within the confines of simplicity will you really find the beauty?

  13. to make someone s life a lot easier, to get them to understand at a lower level than yourself. an emotional fuckwittieness to supply lesser others with the means to grasp unfamiliar concepts to them that you may be able to lend them.

  14. sometimes human beings just need
    to stop and
    think
    about the lives they are living
    about the panic that they constantly
    procreate
    about the time that the effortlessly
    put to waste

    sometimes human beings just need
    to stop and
    appreciate
    the smaller
    things.

  15. To reduce the need for reductionist history
    (or is it her-story?)
    dive through the cliches and devise a prize

    find your heart
    it longs to sing
    share its song

  16. make it shorter, make it easier, throw it out but keep the baby
    remove all that complicates
    consernates
    clutters
    and disguises
    claw your way to the heart of the matter
    perfumed pork pies are a prize when you
    simplify

  17. simplify our romance.

    tell me,
    how we can explain the dance
    of joints and muscles,
    bones clacking together,
    skin against skin,
    teeth against scar.

    tell me,
    how we can summarize the endless nights,
    skies dark, even with stars,
    hearts hollow, cheeks salty,
    how can i summarize
    the words i failed to tell you?

    tell me,
    how you can explain
    the shouting matches
    and the gritting of the teeth,
    the blur between love and hate
    and everything in between.

    can you simplify,
    the insomnia,
    the euphoria,
    the one step away from the cliffside,
    the warm warm arms that wrap around me
    in blurry early mornings
    before the sun is up, before the coffee is made,
    before the people are alive and awake.

    simplify your letters, your lips,
    the words that were caught up in your throat,
    the words that were exchanged through our touches,
    fingers interlaced through fingers, strands of hair,
    fingers wrapped around wrists, hands wrapped around throats.

    simplify this:
    i love you.
    i hate you.
    kill me.

  18. cut off your losses in the end, whiskey in the glass is
    easier than a shitty manhatten. i don’t think about it much anymore
    and that’s making all the difference. god grant me the gift of
    hindsight so i keep making the same mistakes.

  19. I try to simplify things
    with my words on this page.
    It’s ironic though
    because words aren’t simple
    like letters are; they’re not
    one-dimensional things;
    they’re not the blank spaces
    between letters.
    They’re the blank spaces
    in the universe,
    meaningless,
    meaningful beyond measure.

  20. Simplify your own life. Start small, but dream big. If your dreams are big and broad, there’s a lot of room to figure them out. Your own life needs to be simple, so you can focus on one thing at a time. Follow this advice and who knows, maybe you’ll be famous someday.

  21. I joke with you
    you take it seriously
    i love you
    you kind of hate me
    my sense of human
    humor must simpify
    too simple and a laugh
    bye
    bygones and blackened teeth
    you hate me
    but you never quite got me
    that’s love’
    yeah yea ya
    that’s love’.

  22. making everything easier in life de-clutter everything and make it minimalistic, why make you life herder when it can be simpler with less to distract you from your goals and aspirations in life. Simplify you life, your mind and everything will become clearer to you. Its a lesson we all need to learn.

  23. simplify. it’s hard. wtf, how am I supposed to write about simplify? bakit ang hirap? simple. DOn’t overthink. yet I’m still thinking. OOOH look at that blue bar. It’s so simple. I hate how everything’s complicated right now. I want my life to be simple.

  25. Oliver sat on the bank of the river. He was hot and fidgety. He stabbed at the mud embankment leaving crude scars and unearthed worms wriggling away on the edge of his blade. This whole mess with Sophia had left his mind in a fog. He couldn’t think. He longed for a simple life again, like the way things were before that day he saw her come out of Miss Millie’s. He rubbed his dirty palm against his brow and exhaled. Then in one violet movement he sprang up from the riverbank, hurled the knife into the bubbling water and ran as fast as he could from the troubles behind him.

  26. I want a minimalist life. So little, with such depth.

  27. If only i could simplify the thoughts in my mind. Perhaps then i would be able to devise a plan of action. Of change. But the sheer complication of all my emotions, makes it impossible to think straight. To simplifly my life, would be simply happieness..

  28. The ball bounced across the floor.

    or

    The magnificent orb of wondrous light made in the dawn of our universe bounced with a twirl and spring across the lunileum, a word I cannot spell, floor.

  29. Allow me to simplify this for you. One of these days you will wake up, you will get out of bed and out of the blue, life will strike you. For the first time in your existence you will be face to face with reality. Life is no longer the rainbows and smiles that you try to force it to be; life is one unyielding burden. One of these days it will hit you – hard – and you will be awakened to the realistic depression that confronts the rest of those who lived their lives as lies.

  30. cut out pictures scattered across the desk
    clothes on the floor – work uniform, pile of briefs
    sprawled across the bed
    a thought-revoking show playing from the only light in the room
    mind, unmotivated, weary, cluttered, empty.

  31. to make easier. break it down so that you aren’t complicating your life and whatever it is you’re trying to do. I need to simplify, to narrow down and goals and what i want to actually accomplish something bigger in my life.

    by nicole on 05.08.2013
  32. Simplification is the name of the game. One cannot move and be nimble when burdened with all things. Let go of the possessions and the ideas and the people that hold you back.

  33. The end of the semester simplified the rest of her life, providing a road map’s level of clarity. Editing and publication came next; working out was a must; of course there was exploration to consider (she really needed to see more of the world); a social life, even on a small scale, was necessary to maintain sanity; and of course, there was tomorrow, she couldn’t stop thinking about tomorrow.

  34. Just to make it easy I’ll keep this to the basics. I won’t go into detail, I’ll just tell it like it is and avoid adjectives. The purpose of the exercise is not to fill the page but to empty the mind.

  35. I always wondered what would happen if you took your life and folded it in half and in quarters and stuck it in a bag. I wondered if you could simplify a human life by simply removing the garbage and planting smiles in your bones. I think if you just stop thinking about that and this and her and him you’d be able to wake up in the morning and not feel the heavy claws of depression calling out to you. I think you should just wake up, and live.

  36. simplify, a blank page, nothing to think, over complicated, layer on layer of unnecessary thoughts, questions, turning corners to find more corners and drawing a map all the while, and on that map, in the corners and at the bottom, more little maps.

  37. He hung the last of the small potted plants and hung it by the front porch. He took in the different smells of the flowers he had just planted in his garden, and thought it all worth the hard work. In months leading to his retirement, Simon couldn’t fathom life not working; waking up every morning without following a routine: the 6:00 traffic, the difficulties of parking, the mostly insipid water cooler conversations, all the paperwork. All the tiny battles he had to plough through before his day at work actually begins, and now it all seems like a distant past. How time flies. But now he is all about simplifying his life, and although he took his sweet time getting there, just like his newly planted flowers and renovated garden, it is definitely worth the wait.

  38. Why couldn’t things be easier? Why couldn’t things be simple? He liked simple. His life was simple. His personality was simple. He was practically the epitome of simple. Why couldn’t she be the same? Why couldn’t she appreciate his ultimate craving for a life that was simplified?

  39. Something as simple as this.

  40. A word, make things easier. Enjoy something more that the trouble that it could really be.
    A text said in more understandable way.
    Make something more simple
