Simplify! Simplify! Is the message of Henry David Thoreau in his beautiful book Walden. In it, he writes of giving up all his worldly belongings and traveling to the woods of Massachusetts to build a cabin, live from the land and meditate. We do not have to go to this extreme to become close to nature, of course, but what I love the most about Thoreau's message is his summary in this most profound statement: "A man is rich in effort to what he can afford to let alone."Think about this idea for a second. Does its clarity ring through to you? To me
