We live in a complicated world, with taxes and devices and every imaginable complication the world can provide. Wouldn’t it be nice if we could just take some time to keep things simple? Simplicity Day encourages you to do just that, to let go of all of life’s complications and live a day….. simple.
The National Simplicity Day is the time to get back to basics and celebrate this event every year on July 12. It is celebrated in the honour of the birthday of Henry David Thoreau, who was born in 1817. It is said that Henry David Thoreau was a super talented person, an author, an environmentalist, an abolitionist, a poet, and a transcendentalist (A person who accepts the ideas not as religious beliefs but as way of understanding life relationships).
Simplicity Day was born out of the need to be free from the complications of the world and to allow ourselves to just be simple. Celebrate life through simplicity by turning off your devices, getting rid of complicated things and just let life be about living for a day.
This day highlights the importance of keeping yourself away from technology so that individuals can connect with themselves, and do away with the pointless clutters in their lives. It encourages us to estimate and thoroughly understand what are the significant things in their life.
The unofficial holiday motivates people to embrace simple living and a simple outlook towards life. It also promotes participants to do one thing to make the world a better place. The holiday is also sometimes known as National Simplicity Day in the United States.
So now, just step away from your your computer, and find a sunny nook with a cup of tea or a book to pass the time. Feel the sun on your skin and the sounds of birds and insects. These moments will be the ones that can truly set you free. During these long moments take the time to relax and consider how you want to proceed in your life.
Simplicity Day can lead the way!
