When I was young, well over 50+ years ago, people had more common sense, ingenuity, creativity and "can-do" ability. They were proud of doing things cheaply and simply. They made do with less, figured out simple and cheap ways around issues and were proud of their ability to make do with less. I can't help but believe that people today could learn from those earlier generations.
Before someone jumps in telling me about how "they" do things and sees me as attacking their pet project, I am not doing that! The reason for posting this thread is to have people consider that there are many ways to go about life. We can buy things, spend our time finding the latest gadgets, posting pictures of our expensive new toys, while at the same time, we can't go anywhere because we are too busy paying for them.
As we used to say, "There are many ways to skin a cat!". We should also consider vehicles that serve one purpose, to get us "out there"! To allow us to see the wide world around us. To see how others live. In other words, to live life! To be free.
For me, freedom is about DOING IT. Not organizing it, building it, buying it, maintaining it, new gadgets or posting about what you own on the web. That is NOT the same as DOING IT. Is it?
Ok, think this is a attack on your plans, projects or lifestyle? Think again. It's not. If you find this thread uncomfortable, then maybe you have doubts about who you are and what you hold dear.
Just do what feels right for you, BUT go out and live! Don't just plan, talk, spend, post and dream.
But, as I have said many times before, what the hell do I know...
Peace
