Elegant Simplicity is learning to live with less, to respect others, to control one's ego and try to preserve the precious resources on our planet. We have complicated our lives with possessions, riches and clutter, whereas only in inner and outer simplicity can true fulfillment and happiness be found. By demanding less, we should be ready to give more. We can respect our finite natural environment, overcome our ego and all that it demands, learn to love wth our soul and live without pride. Therein lies personal fulfilment's.
