51. Tis A Gift To Be Simple

Skipping Stones with Seth Roberts

These days, we’re all told to want more — more money, more stuff, more experiences. But no matter how much we get, it never feels like enough. What if the secret to happiness isn’t having more, but actually needing less?

This episode looks at how life has become way too complicated. We have endless options from streaming shows to places to travel to people we follow online, but somehow, we feel more disconnected and less happy.

Think about it. Have you ever believed you’d be happy once you found the perfect partner, got a certain job, or bought the latest gadget? But after a short moment of excitement, you end up wanting something else. It’s a never-ending cycle.

Long ago, people lived with less, but they might have felt more content. They found joy in simple things, like dancing just for the fun of it — not to impress anyone, just to enjoy the moment.

If you’re ready to rethink what matters, tune in to Skipping Stones. Each week, we share easy reflections on how to live a more intentional, meaningful life and how to focus on what’s truly worth your time.
