A Simple Life
-
Is the simple life a romantic dalliance these days? Am I a unhinged - from reality- nut when I wish for the opportunity to chuck in the corporate towel, find a beach side cottage and spend the remainder of my days living a simple, honest life? The more money I make, the less satisfying I find it. Even my short term sacrifice for long term peace idea seems not worth it at times. Anyone here live a simple life, just popping into CP every now and then, when the wind blows and you can't rather go down to paddle in the ocean?

The more money I make, the less satisfying I find it Welcome to the Ahrimanic (materialistically evil) influence of money! Even my short term sacrifice for long term peace idea seems not worth it at times. Especially when there is no real sense of security in this world anymore. The concept of working for one company and getting a nice retirement package is gone (along with the sense that the company you work for is run by moral and upstanding citizens that are interested in YOUR wellbeing). The world is continually at war. Disease, hunger and starvation still plague most of the world. Personal relationships are fragile because of materialistic goals and the nearly complete destruction of spiritual and family values. Family relationships are destroyed by a society that becomes more and more mobile as each day goes by. Meaningful communication has been lost in this age of constant cell phone, pager, email, and discussion board babble. Immediate gratification is the norm in an age where you can practically send something tomorrow to arrive yesterday or buy something and immediately consume it. The concept of taking a breath to really think about something is losing ground to the continual barrage of media sound bite frenzy, and content is replaced with entertainment where commercials become a reprieve from the audio-video onslought of regular programming. Anyone here live a simple life For the moment (which is all that one can live in now, it seems, and even the "moment" is shrinking), I bill my clients around $65-$85 / hr, so I only need to work about 20 hours a week to meet my financial goals. That means I can do things I really want to do with the rest of my life, like writing articles for CP! :-D Marc (sarcastic??? who, me???) Help!

My life's never been simple - I wish it was! Ain't that the truth, Anna! :-D But you are also blessed--you are probably one of the few people that actually know who they are, or at least have the opportunity to figure it out and do something about it.

Paul Watson wrote: Meg, you should not need to work 45 weeks of the year so that you can spend 5 taking a train across Asia taking photos and writing down peoples stories. You should be able to take that train whenever you want and spend however long you need on it. Currently you have to sacrifice half the potential pleasure of the journey because in two weeks you have to be back at the desk. I suppose that's the challenge - becoming good enough at something that will allow you to do that sort of thing. Imagine the chaos if everyone was on holiday all the time. Who would be driving that train? Don't get me wrong - I'm suffering from exactly the same questions at the moment. I dislike sitting down at a desk all day (hence the lunchtime trips to gym to run), but life isn't fair. When I left school I wanted to go alone to the Kalahari and make wildlife documentary's, but there was noone to fund me. There's no point wasting my life crying about it. To be honest, I am happy to work hard now if it means that in 10 years time we can move to the Serengeti and start an ecotourism business - that sort of joy is worth working for and earning. Still - I shouldn't be ranting at you about this - I'm actually trying to convince myself! :( Our CEO gives me a lift in quite often, and he says the same thing to me almost every time - "anyone who wakes up in the morning should be happy, it's all about attitude." All I can say is TGIF - tomorrow I get to photograph the Chinese New Year in Soho, and hopefully on Sunday we will go to Rochester Castle for more of the same! :) Yeah yeah - that was exactly what you were condemning right?

But, there are people who went out and started ecotourism businesses from scratch, without working 10 years before to earn the capital. That is amazing, how the hell do people do that? That is what I want to have the confidence to do :) Admit it, you would rather be right in the thick of starting your ecotourism business than at your London desk. You, like me, just need a shot in the arm of confidence. Megan Forbes wrote: "anyone who wakes up in the morning should be happy, it's all about attitude." Hey, this is me.

My Dad's business was ecotourism (hiking, river rafting, horse trails, etc) on our farm when I was a teenager. Before that he was a stock broker to make the cash to follow his dream. It's a wonderful life - I'd recommend it :cool: Paul Watson wrote: to see if there are any dawn shots I can get You should have seen the neighbours during the snowstorm last night staring at this crazy SA - I was out there in my PJ's, trying to get macro's of the snowflakes on the leaves in no-light conditions :laugh: Paul Watson wrote: And thanks for the ecoclub link.

Paul Watson wrote: That is the thing. I know what I really want now. But I keep making excuses that it is not possible to pursue it. My confidence is brain washed by the mass consumerism and so called realities of making a living. Ugh. If you know what you want to do then do it ..... Ali thinks and smiles .... actually I know its not that easy, I've wanted to be an artist all my life (one of my picy's is on my bio) but I don't give up work to do it. I tell myself I'm not good enough, but I see other people who are not that talented do it - so why don't I? I'm really not sure - just too scared perhaps. Paul Watson wrote: make a few million Perhaps that's where we are different 'make a few million has never been my ajenda, I could go and work in another part of the country and earn far more money than I do here. People have been telling me that for years and its true. But I choose to stay here, in a sleepy backwater - perhaps its my solution, my compromise. Hhmmmm, I still think I'm hung up on stress and you say that is not your problem, so what is your problem? I don't really get it ....

Like you said you don't have the confidence to make a living from your art, yet from that one small pic I think you definitley could (nobody has ever made yellow flowers look good against a purple background, yet you have IMO.) I don't have the confidence to go out tomorrow and become a pro-photographer or dedicated writer. Alison Pentland wrote: Don't let a year turn into a lifetime without noticing Indeed, very true. Happens to many I think. I have made a compromise though. By the end of the year I will have saved enough money to survive without a job for 12 months. At that point I will take a sabatical from BG and leap into what I decide on.

Paul Watson wrote: If it could only ever be one season, which would you choose? Spring would be mine, autumn is lovely but not forever Seems like the answer depends on where one's living.;) For sure I'd never choose autumn - here in Germany autumn most time means rain, often it's cold and uncomfortable. I think I'd choose the early summer - when the air's still pure, the nature's now green again and the sun's shining during the whole day. And sun delights my heart and thus makes my day more pleasant than anything else :-D (ok, perhaps there're some other *things* - but I'm not gonna talk about that now;) )

I understand what you are talking about. There was a period of my life where I went through a similar process. Still, I look at people in the corporate world running around thinking that they actually matter and are irreplaceable and I laugh. Life is too short to waste, and we don't really get a second try at it. I believe a lot of people would like to "chuck in the corporate towel" but they don't for a variety of reasons.

Lived on it for six months. Met people on the island, rented a hilltop (over the bay) cottage at a good price and stayed there for a total of 3 years. Got islland fever, ran out of money and came back to the US. Another gave up an Asst. VP position to build bird houses (generally did wood crafts) to sell in a local resort. That lasted a year, then he looked for gold in Nevada/Arizona for a year or so. Eventually wound up back in town in a somewhat menial clerical position. Neither would trade their experience. Mike

It was not my intention though. In fact I am not even a fan of poetry, prefering long verbose sentences and paragraphs, with whole words, not force fitted ones :) I guess I see code all day long, code with no aesthetics to it, just pure, rational, technical code. So when I get the chance to type non-code I try and be a bit more, for lack of a better word, poetic. So do you live a simple life? Ever wanted to? Is it possible?

I guess my life's pretty simple, I grew up in the countryside, away from all the traffic and noise of the city. And, until last year, I had only held simple jobs, like supermarket stock boy or cook in a restaurant. I kind of like the analogy from the movie office space, "What would you do if you had a million dollars?" or more generally "What would you do if money wasn't an issue?" My response would be exactly the same as the guy on office space, nothing at all, although the guy's neighbor's response sounds pretty good (two chicks at once).

"It's not having what you want It's wanting what you've got" Sheryl Crow, Soak Up the Sun. You'll never be happy until you follow your heart and dreams. It's your life. Live it how you want to. Don't worry about those who call you crazy. They're too busy living someone else's life. I know that it's easier to say than to do, but it's what I believe. I met a man one time who had given up a top corporate job to become a river guide. He went from making who knows how much to living out of his van. You could tell he was happy with his decision from the way he acted and talked. I wonder how many people have the guts to do something like that? I'd wager that there aren't many. Greg
