The Key to Simple Living: Appreciating the Present

 

The content you’re looking for is no longer here. We’re finally beginning to shut this blog down, to remove old content.

We’ve chosen to start with essays that are available elsewhere. Specifically, this article has been edited into our book, Sacred Coffee: A “Homesteader’s” Paradigm.

You can learn more about it, and order it here in your preferred format.
