So I travelled some more and discovered that the less I had, the more happy I was. That the more I lived in harmony with nature, the truer, I was to myself.
This is as good a way to live as any and so interesting to hear that the less material things that you had, the freer you felt. I guess when we break it all down, we really don't need all that much. It is the marketing machine that makes people think they need more and more and more and more... They get stuck in a false sense of self, thinking that when I get such and such, I'll be happy... if I can just get that expensive car, I'll be happy.... If I can just get the big house I'll be happy.... but of course life is not that simple and some of the saddest people have no shortage of material wealth and some of the happiest only want wealth in their heart and in their head.
You're a great advocate for this way of life @trucklife-family and you might just have convinced me to start being a bit more self sufficient myself by keeping a vegetable garden.. Thanks for that
Woohoo, go start a vegetable garden, it is so good to grow your own food. For you and your family and get the kids to help, that's one skill that every kid should have.
Ultimately it is all about being true to who you are and you are the only one who knows. Thanks @ablaze xxxxx
I will. My Dad has kept one on the farm for years. Nothing like the spuds and scallions you get and the size of them! Thanks for the encouragement.
Yes growing your own spuds, that's the best, cooking them straight from the ground, no better taste in my opinion and fresh scallions in your salad, I love it xxxx
