Creating a life that reflects your values...
Kids are a bit of a loaded example, but this cartoon makes a fair point. The rat race is very dehumanizing.
I for one am working on leaving the cities... I want to explore multi-decade spans of nature in my own garden, while eating fresh food, at the same time as computing. Now I'm studying natural building techniques, water and electrical systems first with the aim to build a place to support those dreams. Next up is cheese and winemaking. I don't worry about how many of those things I'll suceed at... I'm already having loads of fun learning!
