Be satisfied with what you have and don't over work or be lazy! Be clean and simple! Be honest and helpful to every life around you! Be responsible to protect the natural environment to your best as well! ( be mindful to keep you safe as well)!
I am a Buddhist from Sri Lanka! ( I experience this life; that is awesome! )

Amen to everything you said. I remember my youth, we did not have tv, no computers, no cars, and my parents were not rich but we enjoyed every minute of our life. There were time for family, friends, neighbors. Ah, it would be good if I could go back to that time. 🤗😁😊

[claudiagimenezmedel]

Each person is a unit: body, mind and spirit. If there is no harmony there will be no happiness or well - being. Life is now, today. Let's become aware! Great video. Thanks L E Stories

[АннаЦанева-ющ]

Amazing story as usual, our life could be simple, we don't have to worried for few things, slow down and live here and now. 🥰😍

[gabrielafernandes]

When I read this story I felt like you were talking about the changes I did in my life few years ago. Me and my husband simplified so many things when the pandemic started, we donated clothes for charity, moved to another house, reduced our furniture and many other items in our house (we even reduced the number of forks, spoons, pans...). This new way of living changed our lives for the best, now everything is simpler, easier and happier. And it's not all about things, but we changed the way we solve problems, see the world and our own relations. Thank you so much for this story!

I'm preparing B2 by myself and your stories are very useful for pronunciation

[eupremioguadalupi]

The topic is amazing.The rythm of the reading is divine as well as the intonation.I strongly advise this didactic devise to all my colleagues teaching English in the world.The combination of listening, understanding and reading at the same time is a powerful way of motivating and learning.Thanks a lot for the divine reader, whose name might appear in the end.

[amalkasir]

The story is amazing besides being real and because of the swift lifestyle in the recent years most people feel that they need to slow their living down and have a slow paced life in order to get rid of some of the stress gained by the all affectors around them . Thanks a punch ! and the video sound is flawless .

[fatohu]

It’s a gorgeous story to learn English from. Thank you so much.

Jerom K.Jerom wrote similar ideas in his book * Three men in a boat...* ! I was fascinated by his words : Throw the lumber over, man! Let your boat of life be light, packed with only what you need - a homely home and simple pleasures, one or two friends, worth the name, someone to love and someone to love you, a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, enough to eat and enough to wear, and a little more than enough to drink; for thirst is a dangerous thing.

[xinyue]

Thank you so much for this lovely stories. I love the ideas of slow living, we don't have to live what society tells us when we are not ready yet. I really enjoy to spend time with myself by doing the things what I want to do like learning new things, meditation, doing some stretches during the leisure time. I just want to please myself instead of pleasing the society. The meaning of Happiness should be defined by the own choice. Not what should be or what shouldn't be judging by others.

[rimagoncharuk]

Slow down and read the Holly Bible!!! Our Good God will take care of all of us! Just think of Him and love Him and take a good rhythm of life!!!👍❤️🙏 Thanks for reading!
