What is the simple life? It's different for everyone. This is what's cool about it! You GET to define it yourself! And from my experience it changes with the seasons of life.
For me right now, it's
...homecooked meals
...few possessions; "Have nothing in your home that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful." ~William Morris
...being in the moment
...limited choices... in food, clothing, books
...being passionate about what matters and the time and energy to do what matters
...consuming less and experiencing more
...being resourceful with meals and decor and needed items
...creating over buying
...less go, go, go and more contented stay
...less "have to's" and more "get-to's";
...less noise and more quiet
...being in nature... often
...making my body healthy by an active lifestyle vs. working out at the gym
...appreciating the little things
...being debt-free
...no shopping mall "therapy"; more get outside and enjoy God's creation
...using natural beauty and personal health products
Hoping to infuse more of
...less internet; more creating and connecting
...less trying to please everyone; more trying to please God
...less "dependence" on big grocery stores; more contentment with simple food
...less reading on a screen; more reading books
I love how you live your life, it is truly to be admired!!
