Peace Farm - Not keeping up with the Joneses

We all want more out of life but all we have more of is stress and debt. A radical paradigm shift is needed - instead of trying to keep up with everyone else, reject the unimportant and embrace what is; your family, your community, your planet. Who cares where you work, how big your SUV is and what kind of sweat-shop shoe you wear? Teach your children well - reject consumerism and embrace self-sufficiency and family time well-spent. Respect all who cross your path equally - we are all one...

What a long, strange trip it continues to be...

Today marks a departure for me. I will no longer lament that the hippie/deadhead community that I am used to does not exist in the manner I am accustomed to in my new location. I will endeavor to find and make the community I want in the place I am. The old "Bloom where you are planted" axiom put to actual use. This is an excellent day to start my new mind-set as I have been cleaned by ritual smudging last night and I am now shiny and new - well, at least my aura is!
