Maintaining a complicated life is a great way to avoid changing it. (Elaine St. James, author)

Life in the 21st century has become very complex. We talk about simplifying our lives, but we find it difficult to do. We sometimes find it almost impossible to simplify, to do away with the complexities of modern technology. It takes great determination to simplify, but it’s worth it.

Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. (Hebrews 12:1-2)
