Hi!
This is an ongoing story that sprang from my “Buy Less, Pay More” declaration. There are a number of elements to actually pulling this off. I am no where near perfect at this but I am making progress. This is a story of that progress.
There is a spiritual element, a personal property element, an activity element, and a mission or purpose element. The idea or desire to achieve personal simplicity seems to be a natural result of living more spiritually. The result is a desire to own less personal property and only the property necessary to support the activities we want to engage in. Often there is a sense of mission or purpose to the entire endeavor. An example might be someone who wishes to serve in a remote location teaching a language. They may need to be able to carry everything they own on a passenger jet and an off road vehicle and on their back. There may be those whose main desire is to see as much of the world as possible. They would want similar gear but with shorter stays in the plan. Another may want to live simply so others may simply live. They would want only enough gear to support them and not necessarily need portability. I like to inject the idea of buy less, pay more here. When one owns only what they need, they can focus their resources on the best that meets their needs rather than spread their resources out over numerous items they found on sale or advertised in their favorite TV shows.
Much more to come.
Happy Trails,
Lonn
