A Simple Life in the Countryside

I think that the secret to a slow life is to see wisdom in each simple thing; to find meaning in the ordinary and joy in the everyday. It is the simplicity of growing your own food, noticing the beauty of nature, and feeling the seasons pass alongside you. Inner peace is found when we use our hands to build, mend, garden, harvest and sew, but this simple life is much more complex than we think. It is filled with hardship and struggles, and work that never ends — but each drawback is balanced by equal magic.
