Smallwheels, I feel the same way (and I left South Louisiana also). I think that the people with very few material possessions that also are spending their time in a way that pleases them are living a wonderful life.

I keep coming back here for inspiration also. I still have a small pickup truck that I use for my green job, but I'm looking into various trades/crafts as a way to possibly earn a living from home, or a small rented shop close to home. I'd really like to not own an auto.

Oh, about inspiration, have are any of you familiar with the site www.simplicitycollective.com? A really neat guy from Austrailia writes some excellent posts about voluntary simplicity. In fact, he did his doctoral thesis on voluntary simplicity.
