Simplicity! What a lovely idea! It's so simple, it'll practically take care of itself!
Right? Wrong.
Simplicity is not an entropic, passive state.
A simple life takes activity and purpose to achieve and activity and purpose to maintain.
Clutter is entropy at work, and chaos is the direction the world naturally gravitates towards
Without active energy being put towards order, we float towards clutter. In our world, we are continually being pushed towards complexity. We are pushed by advertising, by peer pressure, and by the fascinating activities, gadgets, and hobbies that seem [and sometimes are] so appealing and so fulfilling!
Complexity is the default tendency of our culture. So if we want simplicity, we have to make it happen intentionally!
We have to fight for it!
