I find myself pulled towards simple living in two forms: one is to minimize decisions as much as possible to maximize the time and energy I spend on things I love. This means a clean and organized routine and space, and conveniences are a necessity.
Another appealing goal is to lead a slow, conscious life that moves towards the lifestyle of, say, my great-grandmother.
These desires are often conflicting. For instance, I simplified my life and decision making a great deal by switching to a Soylent heavy diet- but of course that contradicts goal 2! The ideal in that case would be to eat local produce, and take the time to prepare hot,fresh meals.
What are your thoughts on this, and which interpretation do you personally subscribe to?
