    Isn't this what the human search is all about?
    Trying to reduce everything down to its simplest components.
    Trying to find the simplest way through the complex objectives the world throws at us constantly.

    For what does one need to live in peace?
    A simple life? A life that that can ensure the basic human needs are met without any uncertainty.

    But where would we be without complexity. All great science, literature, poetry and music has risen through the human quest of trying to understand the complexity weaved within the simplest elements of nature.
    What would we write about? what would we sing about? if we were satisfied with just the simple basic necessities of life.

    We try everyday to push our way through tangles of hope and anticipation that weaves the web of life. Each push adds to the complexity of this web.
    And we long for simplicity. Yet we can't help but push on further.

    Perhaps for you it is but there isn't any one thing that Human life is all about. Everybody looks at life differently and nobody's opinion is more or less legitimate. Makes me smile that.
