Very thoughtful, Alex. I think it is good for all of us to consider what is forming us and what direction are we growing. It may be especially germane in this county where we live and in this period that is shaping us. My inclination is head continually for the "more" column, but perhaps I need to depart for a while and give it some solid thought,.
I tend to put myself in the 'more' column even though I raise goats and studied Latin. Can't we make 'more' room for others, and still choose simplicity by taking less ourselves?
Yes, of course. I think that's a great distinction between what you personally choose to do vs what you think society should broadly be shaped by. Embracing growth is not the same as a personal call to consume.
