Elegance Despite Poverty
In days of old, lets say 2002, everyone was buying houses that represented their inner success even though they may have had none. It was beyond keeping up with the Jones. It was keeping up with the Nation. Small housed men and women became as enticing as the desire for small organs and breasts.
ARTISTS, SPIRITUALISTS & ZEN
As long as I can remember, from Artists to Monks, living simply has been status qua. The hungry passionate artist sees the "abstract" picture of humanity and suffering, and is inspired for great works of creativity. Many spiritualists and Pagans saw smaller dwellings as comfy. Give them an alter, candles, a garden of herbs, animal communication and a glass of wine. This was the ‘Yin” of the “Yang” crowd that chose to profit on spirituality with an Amway wholesale mentality. Of course once many artists became a household word, they too often became locked into material possessions and {often} found themselves losing their edge. The “needs” that triggered passion, become locked into “fat cat comfort”.
LIVING ZEN IS LIVING WITH SIMPLICITY & ELEGANCE.
The nice part about simplicity is it has a low price tag.
How so? Elegance has a back bone of “less is more”. • Small houses are back. Whether poor or rich, the same effect can be created with spacious warm coziness. {Very elegant.}
• Simple clothing with a great scarf is elegant
• Small breasts are back! Blue Canoe Yoga magazines are filled with trim women with comfy cotton or bamboo clothing and bras. Elegant simplicity.
• Spacious rooms minus clutter, low tables and pillows can be just as elegant whether rich or poor. Understated elegance.
• Talking without a “twang” is very elegant. Less is more
• Spending less is elegant and acceptable. Truly a poor mans comfort zone.
SO WHAT EXACTLY IS “ELEGANCE”? • Less Stuff is More
• Less bragging is elegant
• Less wild hand gesturing is elegant.
• Less loud colors, more earth hues is elegant
• Simple lines are elegant.
• Simple attire with a great scarf is elegant
• Less Clutter and nick-naks is elegant
• Walking proud is elegant.
Elegance is a silent essence spoken through simplicity and says MORE about being happy where you are in life despite the odds.
