Yesterday as I was writing about conspiracies a concept began to form in my mind and I wanted to explore it a little more.
Not worrying about conspiracies isn't very hard for me. They are either tenuously true or they don't affect me or both. So ignoring them seems like a good tactic. But I realize, there are a lot of things that I get worked up over and spend lots of time and energy thinking about... that don't really affect me and that I don't know a ton about.
There are a few things that really do affect me. My job, my family, and my church/community. Those are things that I should care about. And while there is plenty to learn about how to do all those things better, the things that really have the greatest impact are simple. Spend time with people. Pay attention. Be present. Care.
Life can be so simple if we don't overcomplicate it with cares and concerns that really don't play into our lives. I get worked up about all sorts of things that I don't need to. I mean, read my blog and see all the things I write about. The stuff is good, but I think I do put a little more thought into them than I should.
So keep it simple. Focus on what you really have an impact on.
