Simplify

Henry David Thoreau said, "Our life is frittered away by detail. Simplify, simplify."

While at first I didn't agree with his statement in it's entirety, the fact that it was from one of my more trusted personalities made me think about it.

I then said, "Leave the detail for car design. Live and love simply, and wholeheartedly.

Yes, we must let details prevail where they will be appreciated, where they will bring joy and that sense of discovery, however small.. Those special places to hold things in your car. Those unique design elements that very few will notice. But even in these, simplicity maintained enhances their appeal. Elegance, thoroughly understated, and achieved, is far more admirable, in my opinion.

But, when it comes to love; so I didn't get you flowers, I rushed straight from work to your place with my heart in my hands..
