When I first read the @Ecotrain question (find out details here)
More Choice Or Less Choice?
I started recalling when my husband first announced he was going on a Keto diet and he wanted me to check it out. He had done all the research for what were the best foods for a ketogenic diet, etc. so we knew what foods our diet would consist of. That became one of the reasons I was happy to adopt the diet for it simplified things – we knew what kind of meals we would be having, what we would be stocking up on, less trips to the grocery store and also what we would be planting in the garden. This would make for less decisions of what to eat, what to buy and what to put in the garden – sounded good to me! Also he declared he wanted to get into making some of the meals, cooking like the gourmet chefs - that was another big draw to me to have to do less cooking!
At this point in my life I am really working on staying more focused. I have direction and my time is precious. It seems as you age time flies by quicker. I don’t want a bunch of distractions or time wasters being consumed in making choices.
My needs are simple and I most assuredly don’t want to get pulled into consumerism and the many choices of things we are lead to believe we need.
With my needs met and living a simple, comfortable life back in the forest, I am happy!
I was happy we had options for where we could build our homestead and had choices for occupations, also choices for when we wanted to leave the work force. I wouldn’t want to be denied these choices for they really affect my life. It’s those other superficial choices that I think we have way too many of and I would be happy to see some eliminated.
