climate change are dismissed by many as "too little, too

David's Corner:
The importance of living simply
Living
simply can be summed up in one
word - Love.
Love is what we all seek in everything we do. It makes the cloudy days pass quickly and the bright days neverending. It makes a difficult task easy and gives meaning and purpose to our lives
In the end, living simply is simply living - in Love.
