Now you can interact with fellow lovers of simplicity by sharing your own simple living blog story.

Simple living and voluntary simplicity seem to be a movement. It's like a living organism or a refreshing wave that, once entertained, works to progressively invade every area of your life. However, we welcome this surging purging with opens arms! :)

My motivation for simple living was complicated living! I hadn't realized the importance of living a simple life until life became very arduous.

We had experienced a whole host of stressful changes within a few weeks. On top of that, I was becoming increasingly aware and repelled by the ways of our culture that were eating and ripping away at our bodies and souls such as greed, debt, consumerism, vanity, faithlessness, indulgence, stress, selfishness, and the like.

My Dream of Simplicity

I fantasize about living in a small cabin in the woods near the mountains in one of the north-western states. Winter snow, cool summer nights, fishing for food (and fun), hiking, camping, and self sufficient living.
