A 'Children's Garden' Where They Tell Us What We Can and Can't Grow



This is what my kindergarten teacher called a cookie person. She told us that we were old enough to draw detailed, realistic looking people. Back then I believed I knew how to draw. Back then this is how I viewed people. I liked my drawings simple. I liked my life simple!! I don't understand why we are expected to make everything so complicated when we get older. Simple is good. Simple is happy. So why is simple not enough?

    I enjoyed your post. And as for your question: why is simple not enough? I honestly believe that it is because people do not value things that are easily understood, the simple things. Maybe that's just me.

    I personally believe complication is a result of mashing to many simples together to quickly. Well, at least that's one way to get at it. . .
