    • New VW and Other Purchases I Didn’t Make June 4, 2008
      It seems strange considering my profession.  I recently pulled a copy of my credit report through the credit watch service  I am a member of.  I needed to purchase a car so I wanted to see where my scores stood and shop for the best interest rate.  To my surprise I had purchased a brand new [...]

    • Beauty in Simplicity Chapter III – The Endless Road April 24, 2008

      “Stop this train, I want to get off!” – Vanilla Ice Yesterday I touched on the fact that I am soul searching for the simple life. My wife and I used to think the Amish had the answer. I now know, as I mentioned, that I do not have to buy a farm and work the [...]

    • A Rabbit Meat Shortage, The American Consumer, and Something About The Simple Life April 21, 2008
      I went on a field trip with my 3rd grade daughter this past week to our county 4-H. I learned a lot about farm animals. It was quite amazing because I saw the farmer of today and even with all the modern technology, (like a $280K combine that has a stereo, GPS system, and two seats) it [...]

Beauty in Simplicity Chapter IV – The Final Verse

Posted on April 25, 2008 by creditdusters

My family lives in a small, rural town in Southern Indiana. We are surrounded by a soy bean field with hundreds of sprawling acres across the street and a large lake that adjoins our property in the back. Sounds nice, right? Why am I so discontented?What is it that continues to drive me toward always wanting more? Every few months my wife and I have these long discussions about getting the house ready to sell. We say we want to move in closer to town, but that is actually code for BIGGER HOUSE!

I hate living like this. I really do. I despise being a hostage to the BMW 325 that I pass every day on my way to work.

The Solution: It is my desire to be satisfied. What I have found so far is that true simplicity is being satisfied exactly where you are in the moment.
