Life: Simple or Complex

They used to tell me that life is simple.  Being simple, I believed them.

Then I discovered that life isn’t that simple.  Maybe there are 11 kinds of people, those who understand binary, those who don’t and those who aren’t sure.  Add another category and we can have 100 kinds of people.  Is that really simple?  Seems complex to me.

Yes, life is complex.  It is also in constant motion.

You get started in a career, get married, have children.  Responsibilities not only accumulate, they also multiply.  This phenomenon intensifies with time.

Warning: Don’t stare too long at that graphic.  It can mess with your mind, and will if you let it.

These days it only takes a good night’s sleep to make me happy.  (Okay I choose to be happy regardless of circumstances.)

When I was young, life was easy,
But with age the slope grew greasy,
Now at this age I do not care,
My home’s not here, it’s over there.

  1. Is it this or is it that??? Have an open mind!!! Always study both sides of a situation!!!

  2. Life is definitely not simple. It’s simple to make the decision to enjoy it though, no matter how complex at the moment it may be. :hkitty:

  3. Oh, oh…I thought I did post my comment. But cannot find it. So, I say again—Binary is simple. You either get it or your don’t. Personally, I’m more often 0 than “get it”. :banghead:

  4. Binary is simple…you either get it or you don’t. Personally, I’m far more often 0 than ” :banghead: get it”.

  5. Life is that simple.
    But I have travelled half of the journey.
    The first half is never simple.
    The second half is to be known.
    :no:

    • Speaking in binary it is 1010. (For decimal 10.) I couldn’t handle 1010 of those at once, let alone 11. Are you wanting to try 1010, or are you already doing that? (I suspect it is the latter.)
