Is it possible to live a simple life?

Yes, in a third world country that is. I have tried the provincial life myself, and I dind't like it, it seemed as if time was moving so slowly, that a day felt like a week (and I'm not exaggerating, that's how I felt). No phone lines, no internet, no TV, no nothing. I can only imagine living a life like that. People slept around 8 at night and woke up just before sunrise. All they do is work (either in the fields or in the sea catching fish). And the women stayed at home doing girly stuff like the laundry, dishes, sweeping the floor, etc. It's almost crazy for me because I grew up in the city all my life.

yes ,It is difficult for us to have a simple.I always think that i have many things to do,but i have not much time!

Sure it is possible to have a simple life anywhere. You are the one making the choices.Get 8 hours sleep every night. When bedtime comes drop everything and go to sleep. one day in seven get completely bored. Do nothing. You will be surpised how 1 boring day will change your outlook. Next, do you have to work overtime and so many hours??? Is the need to have all those material things that necessary?? Be a person of few wants.That is the quickest way to end financial problems.Finally stress,aren't we the ones who really decide to stress out?? Choose to stop, take a few breaths and relax. Is anything more important than your health. As far as problems go. Haven't those problems of the past worked out somehow???Why worry about the new ones? You see the choices are yours to make. Demand the simple life. Make your choices toward your goal.I'm off to relax in my easy chair. Life is simple, happy, and peaceful in my world.I will have it no other way!!

i guess if you want a simple life without too much pressure then you must live far from the city, live in the province and have farm there. people in the farm after morning dont have job already coz normally they will work in the morning and stop during afternoon due to too much heat from the sun. and they will also eat fresh fruits and vegetables. theres no more pressure but just to make sure that crops are in good condition unlike in the city.

It depends on your lifestyle. If you want a modern lifestyle then for sure your life isn't gonna be simple. If you live an old school lifestyle like in the rural areas then it'll be a lot simpler than living a modern one.
