DIARY ENTRY
:: November 28 ::
We all have been busy over
the last few days with all sorts of "to dos." The work was started

Thank you so much for the wonderful website you have

I am FREAKING
OUT!
I am so grateful for this website as a resource...
I knew there
must be someone looking to become self-sufficient
without moving way out into the country. (A quick search

Thank you, thank you. I'll stop back often.

Those are all great liberal platitudes that feel good when
they roll off the tongue. But to really extend ourselves to a

time-stressed people in the world, thanks in part to all the
high-tech devices at our fingertips that are meant to make

More Delivers Us Much Less
(SHM)
- It's time we woke up to
the contradiction at the heart of individualistic capitalism
Finding The Higher Things
(CSM)
- Of course, that luxury
stereo or car or purse looks better. But will it really
enhance our lives? In our search for the high end, are we
finding a higher expression - or merely feeding an
overconsuming appetite?
