Features: This is a book unlike any other book, or to put it another way: "This is a book that is not like a book." Ms. Delo aims to present a different possibility of writing in this book, where opening it immediately takes you on a spiritual journey. This journey is comfortable, effortless, yet simple yet profound in meaning. Ms. Delo shares with us a few concepts of simple living. First, she tells us that time is not terrifying; as long as we slow down, we can better meet the fundamental needs of humanity and life. Second, she teaches us how to make good use of the abundant resources given by heaven—"my own body and senses"—to observe the world and be in harmony with oneself. Third, using her own experience, she shares how, after reaching a state of zeroing oneself out physically and mentally, one can discover their true self from the inside and find joy in interacting with others, even with objects. Lastly, she tells us that none of this should be passive; we should broaden our horizons, look out at the world, and naturally become part of its citizens. Life can be complex, or it can be simple. Do you know who among us is filled with joy? What kind of passion do they possess? Are they born with this gift, or did they once learn to pursue what truly matters? If you observe a person who is joyful in life, whether they are nine or ninety-nine, you will see someone full of passion, vitality, and energy. For someone filled with joy, the world is incredibly interesting. Around us now are many such opportunities that allow us to become such people and live such lives. The tools we need are very simple—just our hands and our hearts.
