Ah, I envy you. I'd be miserable without hot running water and climate control.
And those are neighborhoods that are built by hand where none existed before. No car. No heat. No windows. But a mobile phone. Clearly they have their priorities. And I agree with them. Much of what I had in my before life was sold to me and I was convinced I needed it when I didn't. I wanted it. And it's unnecessary. With any luck. I won't go back. I don't need a cell phone contract. Don't need a car. Don't need to wash my clothes every day. Don't need hot water even. Want them. Don't need them.~KLM\\ "Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." ~Helen Keller //
