the fact that you do not need to worry about about your work, about your boss, about any deadlines of your projects, paying back your mortgage, securing good university for your kids etc. the number of things you have to worry about here is lower - get your goats fresh pasture, get some fuel for the kitchen fire, keep your horse alive and strong as it will serve you best when the mountaineers such as myself arrive and it can be used for carrying their baggage. I don't suggest the life is easier, it is certainly harder and rough, but it is also simpler because one does not have to worry about the stressing things of our western world.
i see.. worrying about sheer survival (on the physical level) does not bother you, does it? the fact, that you have to make the deadliest of endeavours (to which your deadline worry is no match whatsoever)only to stay alive, to provide your family with such fundamental commodities as food, clothes, some other conviences (milk possibly), not even to mention the endless days of hard work to ensure warmth (through the wood, of course) does not count for the ease, that you simply enter the shop (between worrying about your silly deadline (which you were supposingly belittling until the last possible moment to accomplish) and worrying about what pub will you spend your evening in) and buy the most essential things to feed your family.. right after arriving home, you are exposed to the warmth produced by the central heating unit and spend your evening thoughtlessly and worrilessly watching tv only to let the worry and the concern for the sense of responsibility fill your pathetic life during the sleepless night cursing over your deadline.. now, does it? what is the result of you failing in your responsibility? what do you suppose happens when you fail to reach the deadline? (i would almost cetainly say next to nothing.. your boss yells at you and postpones it).. oh, and what do you think happens if you fail to ensure food for your family? there is a thin line between responsibility and an nuease you are capable of getting yourself into in our perception (or perhaps deception??).. but there is a firm line between those two in the real life.. oh, and about being substantial.... on the one hand, you only rely on the society.. the simple life enjoying person has only himself to rely on.. which do you think brings with it more responsibility and hard strive? well, on the other hand, who do you think will suffer (or fall) first when the financial crisis develops in disabling the tertiary sector (namely food distribution chain possibly the agricutural industry, energy supply industries)? will the social justice manage to prevent the card house from falling?? on whom falls the doom?? but it is an altogether different story....

what makes you think such a life simple?

now, does it?

oh, and what do you think happens if you fail to ensure food for your family?
there is a thin line between responsibility and an nuease you are capable of getting yourself into in our perception (or perhaps deception??).. but there is a firm line between those two in the real life..
oh, and about being substantial.... on the one hand, you only rely on the society.. the simple life enjoying person has only himself to rely on.. which do you think brings with it more responsibility and hard strive?
well, on the other hand, who do you think will suffer (or fall) first when the financial crisis develops in disabling the tertiary sector (namely food distribution chain possibly the agricutural industry, energy supply industries)? will the social justice manage to prevent the card house from falling?? on whom falls the doom?? but it is an altogether different story....
