SIMPLICITY
by Jimmy Teo
Singaporean Writer


There is power in simplicity;

Whoever masters it

Masters anything.



Examine the humble atom:

It contains power.

It’s Electrons, protons & neuron

Move at such precision & tremendous speed

That once disrupted

Releases power – the nuclear power.

It is the smallest & simplest

And

The whole Universe is made of its combination

Including you & me.




All computer programs

Are written in the binary:

The 1’s & O’s.

Its combination

Gave us the soft wares

That affects almost everything we do & own

In this world

And

It starts from the simple ones & zeros.




King Solomon said:

‘God made everything simple,

It is us humankind

Who made everything complex’




The richest man in the world

Mr. Warren Buffet

Lives a simple life

Staying in an 3 rooms’ apartment

Driving his own car

And eating at places of his own liking,

Teaching everyone

That simple living

Without extravagances

Is the key to happiness & contentment.

He embraces simplicity.




Simplicity

Is the Oxygen of Happiness -

The insurance & assurance

Of peace, sweetness & longevity.
