The trouble with so many of us is that we underestimate the power of simplicity. We have a tendency it seems to over complicate our lives and forget what's important and what's not. We tend to mistake movement for achievement. We tend to focus on activities instead of results. And as the pace of life continues to race along in the outside world, we forget that we have the power to control our lives regardless of what's going on outside.

"I don't vote. Two reasons. First of all it's meaningless; this country was
bought and sold a long time ago. Secondly, I believe if you vote, you have
no right to complain. People like to twist that around - they say, 'If you
don't vote, you have no right to complain', but where's the logic in that?
If you vote and you elect dishonest, incompetent people into office who
screw everything up, you are responsible for what they have done. You caused
the problem; you voted them in; you have no right to complain. I, on the
other hand, who did not vote, who in fact did not even leave the house on
election day, am in no way responsible for what these people have done and
have every right to complain about the mess you created that I had nothing
to do with."
