If wealth is the secret to
happiness, then the rich
should be dancing on
the streets. But only
poor kids do that.
If power ensures
security, then officials should
walk unguarded.
But those who live simply,
sleep soundly.
If beauty and fame bring
ideal relationships,
then celebrities
should have the
best marriages.
But it’s not here.
Simplicity leads the world.
Live simply.
Walk humbly.
Love genuinely.
