Life is simple, people make it complicated

Of course when i was a child and not an adult life was easy.But now that i have attended college, have a car in my name but still live at home i still have my bills. I will have bills till the day i die so therefore i think life will always be complicated and that is if i dont win the Lotto or somehow come upon some good money. Life is filled with responsibilites now that i am adult and helping my parents out asmuch as i can and having a car loan to pay off and two college loans to pay off i have some responsibilites to take care of and it makes life complicated and not knowing how im going to pay on these is hard at times on me.

In the big scheme of things right now....my life is simple. I stay at home...i do ot work outside the home. We have a small business that I help with...accounts receivable, payable and payroll. There are only 2 employees, so there is not a lot of work to do. ....but, my MIL is one of those people you talked about that put drama in my life. I have gotten to the point last Christmas where she 'forgot' my son's Christmas gift...that I decided I needed to break ties with this woman....and I have not talked to her since Christmas. She is a gossip bag and what she doesn't know....she makes up. It is just easier if I have no contact with her....and she lives 7 miles from me. So, out of sight-out of mind(My MIL)....my life is smooth running if I can just concentrate on my husband and kids.

Hello bounce. Yes life can really be simple if people don't complicate it so often, but one should keep in mind that people around him are only reflections of his own person. So with this i am saying that if people all around you are complicating things, maybe you are creating problems and making it complicated as well. Well there are things that you can't control too, like operations, and their need, so that can complicate life.

We have to take charge of our lives and not allow others to dictate to us how we will live. I believe in the simple life. The simpler the better.

Hi, Bounce. I do agree with you, dear. Life is so simple and only if we could leave it that way, we will be all happy living a life with less stress. But, I guess, we learn to complicate things because we are looking for means to improve our lives.Again, improvement leads to complications. But, why? Yes, you are right, because of the people around us. Those what I call nuisance people, only wanting a piece of us and always have malicious schemes ready for you to hurdle every day of your life. I'm missing those good old days when I don't need much and when what I need doesn't need doing complicated things in order for me to achieve. Sigh...

in the course of my life I learned that it is not other people who make our lives complicated it is us, because we let them do this. It is difficult at first but it really helps to realize that we are not the victim of other people complicating our lives. It is really our thinking and then acting that makes others use us the way they do. The strange thing is if you realize that it is not them but you yourself you are able to change the situation and regain your peace and your balance in life.

If it is a toxic situation , then stop the connection. Life is way too short to have to deal with toxic people.Funny, when I was younger I seem to have more going on than now. I had to do homework and practice. I was watching More t.v. and MTV. I slept less , it seems. Now my life is simple, Work, MY Lot, a hockey game here and there and my guy. But not in that order, lol!

Hello Bounce, As the community grows through it's passing of laws and making new technologies to supposedly make life better and easy, things also gets complicated if Law and order is to be achieved in every Nation. life was simplier but it was hard thoughbecause racist was also rampant and misunderstanding. if we didn't have internet today, then problems would still arise and racism is still at large.

Life is what we will make of it. It can be the simplest joy or the most painful. If we choose to make it more difficult, that's what it will become. The more obstacles we put in our path, the harder the road will be to follow.

hello bounce! life is really simple if we know how to live with it. well,of course every single individual has their own different attitudes and opinions and characteristics in life so there will always come a time that two or more persons will always disagree with the opinions of one another. there's always a positive and negative mindsets which will get connected and distract one another. we just have to keep calm at times of argument to prevent such actions that will turn things worse. if we can learn to deal with those people, we can live freely well. but if we can't, things will really be hard to deal with that makes life more complicated.

Yes you are absolutely correct. Life is a simple and is tastier like chocolate. But people in this world makes it more diificult. If we understand that all the things in our life are temporary in this world, then half of the problem in ones life will be solved

I agree with you,life can be very simple if it weren't for the people around;they are the ones that make life complicated,sometimes so complicated that we wish to run away and leave it behind,but unfortunately there's no escape,so we have to live in this complicated world and try to live up to its expectations,which are higher and higher.If it were for me,life would be much simpler and enjoyable,but that's an utopia right now,and I think it will get even worse for the future generations.

better life me for possible me not i am about life me change to time period for circle to the out the life so borred to question me our life me change me.so better ways to life silent me and good thing me brain.

your right, nothing seems to be easy anymore. every little thing seems to be made a huge deal and a distaster if anything is out of place. it feels like everyone is always panicing on a daily basis over everything.

Life is so simple, the people around us make it complicated. Life is very simple, and money or even in responsibilities. Thinking about simple life and unpleasant surprises.

life is simple, humans are the ones that make it complicated e.g. people that owe money and keep saying they don't wouldn't it be easier to just pay their dues? also people that go spending spree to show off wouldn't it be easier if they only buy what they can afford and save for emergency? and then people that care only for themselves making it difficult for everybody else to get a job, to keep a job, and so on I always kick people like this out of my life it's boring and not productive

my life is very simple,i always wear casual clothes,and try to do what i want to.but the interpersonal relationship in my work is very complicated,my some colleagues often make stories ,tell lies and report u , when u did good job,they look as if they are anxious to see the world in disorder.i feel very tired not because of my work,but of the bad complicated relationship.i dont know what they r thinking of,and whether they r really happy.so i dislike the environment in my workship,and want to change it.

Oh gosh it is inevitable for me really, no matter how well behaved, caring and helpful I am it most times does not matter. People offline and online do try at great lengths to make my life impossible. I do try to live pretty simple and not allow anyone to change my character, however some people go through great lengths to assure they make my life difficult. It is no different off-line and online for me, as no matter what I do they stop at nothing to make my life a bit more difficult then necessary. I do hope at times that people exhaust far quicker then the implore their negativity towards me though. My chin is up at all times regardless.

Yeah Life is so simple, magical and amazing. We all want to live longer, healthy and to be rich but do you think that would be just enough? Nope is not about that. What we really like is to live to the fullest. And sometimes we forgot to be contented on what we have and still asking for more. But on the others side that is a good attitude and sometimes bothers us so much so we almost forgot to appreciate all the things we have. Like our love ones, friends and family. Its all depend on how we attract it. Good day! God bless!

Yeah certain people do seem to want to steer you in their direction. The ones that have a true influence are the ones that positively embrace you and show themselves and their actions. I really love to live a simple and joyous life.
