Living simply “creates space for peace, not as escape from the world, but as rightly ordered life within it. When attention is no longer constantly divided, there is greater capacity for presence.” (1)
Peace is what I seek by living simply. Peace being that place or space where I don’t feel conflicted and stressed; where I feel in tune with the natural world, in tune with my neighbours; where I feel whole; where I have time to enjoy life; where I feel in tune with God – part of God’s kingdom.
Is this a peace that can ripple out into a wider environ?
