Hello Donna.

Glad to have you aboard! I'm thrilled that you found the article useful. It was actually motivated by personal experience. Not so very long ago I found myself caught up in the sort of hectic, material existence I wrote about in the article. When I woke up and realized the negative effect that it was having on my entire life experience, I got rid of two thirds of my possessions and left the city to live on a farm where I could slow down and experience being in nature. You wouldn't believe the difference that living more simply has made on my perceptions of myself and everything/everyone around me! It really is so easy to lose sight of the truly important things in this time-equals-money world, isn't it?

Thanks for taking the time to post a comment!
