As my Grandfather used to say, "Inside every problem is a whole gang of smaller problems trying to be recognized."

Simple things are referrably simple as we define them. It is the way our complex mind take them as to how the malleability of their complexity may strike a deeper impact to us.
It is like asking the question, why do researchers, scientists, and philosophers continue to investigate for the gratification of their unending and unsolvable questions?.
I think lack of knowledge does make everything simple, whereas,intelligence on the basis of primordial intuitions connecting to advanced technical know-hows make everything complex. Where there is ignorance, there is seemingly no need to further investigate for the truth, as the paradigm of reality is indeed gratifying, meanwhile where there is knowledge beseechment of truth will never end, instead continues in an array of complexities leading to the discovery of solutions as to how a truth is defined as. In the general idea, it is all about the search for truth, and essence underlying it.

Simple things are simple. It is the mind always trying to look for short-cuts and desperately failing at it which makes them seem complex.

because we used to face the complex one so simple things are like not what we face everyday.and sometimes these simple things mean to us much more than the complex one.so simple things will be by the time complex.so back to the beginning there are no simple things.its always complex because that's what life is.

It's a game our mind plays on us..... when we expect something to be simple, our mind reacts by searching for and identifying complexities within it and when we expect something to be complex, our mind flattens a lot of curves there to make it look simpler than we thought. Perhaps it is some sort of a balancing mechanism within our mind... some sort of level playing role.
In reality knowledge makes anything simple and ignorance makes everything complex.

They're not and complex things may in fact be simple . It all depends on the way you look at them.

If you keep it simple then the complexity does not exist.

have you ever looked into Chaos theory? it seems like it's a circular kind of thing...... simple things are made up of complex things, but complex things are really made up of simple things.

Huh?
Simple things, in fact, are simple. Complex things are not. Your question contradicts itself.
Though it does have me wondering why black things are so white...Or why tall things are so short...Or why happy things are so sad.
Probably has something to do with a lost dictionary.

The physical, mental and spiritual tools we have discovered so far are too primitive for the simplicity of truth. It is like we are still using a sharp stone in the age of brain surgery!
