We're not technophobes or Luddites. We simply believe that people have lost some important things in the march toward progress. That is not to say progress and simplicity are mutually exclusive. We believe we can have both, and this site catalogs our journey as we try to do exactly that.

Living a Simple Life is about our own personal quest to gradually weed out the unnecessary things and get back to a simpler way of life. We don’t want to preach to anyone so if you’re not interested in “this stuff” you can leave and everyone will be happy. But if you share our passion for voluntary simplicity please stick around, share the things you have learned with us and other readers, and maybe learn a thing or two yourself.

Early American settlers and depression-era homesteaders didn’t have easy lives. But they managed and, in many cases, thrived without technology like tractors, electric well pumps, gas-powered tillers, income from online businesses, portable electric fencing, gas / electric stoves, blenders, massive amounts of information available at their fingertips (internet), energy-efficient windows, fireplaces, furnaces, hot water heaters… Need I go on?
If our ancestors could work hard and live happy lives without all of this, we can certainly live happily – and simply – with the help of such advancements and conveniences.

We are trying to use appropriate technology as a tool to live simply, rather than letting technology and creature-comforts (the “stuff” we own) end up owning us. How does a flat-screen television simplify my life? What about a nicer car, or the latest Playstation gaming system? Do any of these things let me spend more quality time with my family and consciously enjoy my VERY short time on this earth? No? Then why would I want to waste any of that precious time working for someone else so I can pay for crap I don’t really need in the first place?

Work less. Enjoy life more. Isn’t that all any of us really want to do?
