Is life simple or complicated?

Or is it somewhere in the middle?

In all actuality, it seems to me that life is entirely simple. It just is. Unfortunately, add a human perspective and it becomes obviously complicated.

Perhaps spending too much time in GD is what has sparked my interest, where people question why there is anything at all. We all know though, no one has the answer and probably never will.

I’m not opposed to that type of answer, I think it will help greatly in answering this question. So if you have a deep philosophical idea about this please feel free to post it.

I am more interested though in personal opinion, and whether you consider your life more simple or more complicated.

The way I see it is, we are creatures of desire and we should do everything we can to fulfill it. Should be simple right? Often times it is not(like being attracted to your friends SO but knowing better than to act on it).

The toughest part I think is knowing what it is you want exactly. Perhaps, the answer is to simplify your values? Or are we hopelessly complicated? I don’t know, you tell me.

Why, it’s relative, of course, totally dependent on the position of the observer.

Life is simple. PEOPLE are complicated.

Life is simple. It’s Shaft that’s complicated. No one understands that guy but his woman.

Life is simple. It ain’t easy.

A perfect response in six words.

Life is complicated, people who accept that are less so

Life, as in breathing? Or daily life, as in involving yourself with others, your culture, your surroundings?

The former is simple, the latter is not.

The good things in life are simple. Getting them and learning how to appreciate them is complicated.

Life sucks, then you die.
Simple.

Or so I’ve heard from my students.

I swear you are my favorite poster ever.

Gotta stand and face it,
Life is so complicated.
