i had to reach 27 to understand that actually life is simple... but it's simply complicated to realise it.

Life is complex simply because it is the result of a complex set of /dynamic/ interactions - from basic physical interactions (e.g. atomic, molecular), up to emergent interactions (e.g. personal/emotional, social, economic, religious). "Living," on the other hand, is about learning to balance all these dynamic interactions, but that doesn't mean living should be complicated.
We all make heuristic choices as we live our life -- and the perceived complexity of your life is determined by how well your heuristics is able to process these choices: use too much detail, and you'll find yourself in a "complicated" situation; use too little, and you might end up worse.
Find the right balance as you go through life. Trust a little instinct. Keep things simple. In the end, you might find out life is so simple after all.

I agree it is us who make life complicated . especially when younger and have the energy to cope and life is a buzz in an enjoyable drama.
I have lived an interesting life am pretty old now and decided to simplify my life and its doable. It is an ongoing process of simplification so I guess you have to want it.
Stay in the drivers seat orchestrating the life you want and resisting being pulled in to complications.
Before, I used to think that others were very complicated but since weeding out the unnecessary parts of my life I now think others are quite simple really as I just don't allow obfuscations in but recycle them and just get everything pared down to basics.
What do you want - what do I want?

Because institutions are complicated, social rules are complicated, laws are complicated, decisions are complicated. Pretty much the only thing in life that isn't complicated is sleeping. I wish I was doing that right now.

That is true, when we are young life seems so complicated but then you grow up, you start to have problems with your girlfriend but you learn to trust and love her, you start having issues with mum and dad but your standing your ground now, youre becoming an individual and old enough to show mum and dad the decisions you make from now on are the right ones.
Trust me,each experience in your life will be complicated but you will become an individual who will make your parents proud.

Because that's just the way it is. We need complicated systems like with money, jobs and stuff. But in the social life... it just is complicated!

That's just the way it is....only if you make it complicated. You can do things to make life seem less complicated. Life is all about what you make of it.

One of the reasons is that such is life, in other words, every human being's life has been destined to be so since our birth, growth and so on. For instance, take our body as an example, our brain has been scientifically smarter than any computer because it is highly complicated, therefore, we can assume reasons for our mind as well.

It's as complicated as we make it, I guess sometimes things do back fire but all in all if it wasn't complicated then it would be quite empty. You know, you need to have complications so that you can truly understand what it means to relax.

Its not. well, its only complicated if you search for complications or you are looking to deeply into something, well, thats what I think. I don't see the point of being complicated. You only live once, why waste it trying to overconplicate things, infact, think of what percentage of your life you've spent reading this....

the complications in life continually challenge is to develop, in our awareness and physical stature.
it is not life itself that is complicated but the evolutionary path wich humans have chosen. it only seem complicated because we havent quite reached the point of simplicity in our dealings with the world.
