'Tis the gift to be simple,
'tis the gift to be free,
'tis the gift to come down
where we ought to be,
and when we find ourselves in the place just right,
'twill be in the valley of love and delight.
When true simplicity is gained
to bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed,
to turn, turn, will be our delight
till by turning, turning we come round right.

Twitter is still tweeting assorted fact-checkers, trolls and encouragers alike and continues to do so without me scrolling.
Facebook is buzzing about lives mattering, hashtags, apologies, defending and continues to do so whether I check notifications or not.
Right now, for my sanity and hope, I'll relish in the simple things and pray Elder Joseph Brackett was right.
Simple is the road that leads home |
Simple is the color purple. |
Simple is a good meal and good conversation. |
Simple is blowing bubbles with your dad. |
Simple is haircuts at home. |
Simple is knowing what we need. |
Simple is love...even when waves are crashing. |
