    This is really rude to say---When I get less visits from certain relatives---it means so much more.

      As an isolationist of sorts, I completely get where you are coming from.

    There are a lot of examples a person can use to answer that... however, I think that less excess always means more. No one wants every desire to be fulfilled, so the less others do to make your life easier, the more independent and lovely a person becomes.

    A simple life is a free life. Less clutter and less stress leads to more enjoyment.

    Sometimes it is.
    sometimes it is not.
    Yet indeed, we all want more time
    sometimes and
    less times sometime other.
    Thus, one concludes that less is never more
    it is indeed sometimes...

    Less clutter, more space
    Less blah blah blah in the mind, the more peace
    Less responsibility, more lightness
    Less television, more truth
    Less gossip, more trust
    Less calories, more health
    Less expectation, more surprises
    .......and many more

      You are absolutely right.  I especially enjoy the moments when I have less blah.  Thanks for responding.
