A Simple Secret

How will you learn the secret of life? Not, I assure you, by Googling it. Vast amounts of information are available to us via the Internet, but no website or app will be able to bring you into harmony with your inner being, which is where you have to go in order to really know who you are and why you are here.

So what do you have to do? Unplug and go outside. It may seem like a contradiction that in order to connect with your inner world you should go to the outer world, but there is something special that happens when you go out into nature. Our bodies are made of the same substance as our Mother Earth. When you are in her presence, when you can feel the sand between your toes and hear the waves crashing on the beach, when you walk through the dappled light of the forest, when you taste the sweet seasonal fruits, you are finding your core.

The cold and snowy winter is over. The spring flowers have bloomed. It’s summertime—the season to eat, sleep, and dream outdoors! Read more of my thoughts about this simple secret of life on the Huffington Post at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/deborah-king/the-secret-of-life_1_b_7493966.html
