Simple Doesn

Are you longing to simplify things just a little, amidst the crazy, loud, distracting clutter of life? Are you longing to be "Souly Rested"? That's where I was when my family moved from busy suburbia to a rural New England farm and started on this crazy ride toward simplifying things. Since "simple" is almost never synonymous with "easy," I was pretty much a failure at everything I tried. But along the way I learned that it's not only okay, but actually GOOD that simple joys require hard work. So I'm here, along with many insightful guests, to encourage you in this sometimes difficult effort to simplify. Because we can do this, guys. Together.
