Interesantes comentarios sobre “vivir simple”. Un poco confuso el tema, vivir simple es vivir simple. Si pero ¿qué es simple? La mayor parte de los comentarios van orientados a cosas materiales, principalmente a
1. Tener menos
2. Gastar menos
y un comentario contradictorio:
3. Gasta en pocas cosas de valor y no en un montón de cosas baratas.
Pero vivir simple no solo implica cosas materiales, sino también cuestiones espirituales, sobre la relación con los demás, con los amigos, con la familia. E implica algunas elecciones personales, como renunciar a muchas cosas que hacemos, para dedicarnos a menos cosas, más específicas. De hecho renunciar a muchas de las cosas que uno quiere hacer y pero no podemos hacer tantas cosas a la vez y solo nos causa frustración. Muchos blogs que leer, una montaña de libros al lado de la cama, cientos de horas de música que no va a dar tiempo a disfrutar… muchas cosas, muy poco tiempo.
Estoy aprendiendo a usar 43 things. Los comentarios en el sitio son muy valiosos.
Interesting commentary on “live simply”. The topic is somehow confusing, live simply is live simply. Yes, but what is simple? Most of the comments are oriented to material things:
1. Have less
2. Expend less
and a little contradictory:
3. Expend in less things of value and not in many chipper things.
But live simple is not only about material things, but has to do with more spiritual things, with relationships with friends and family. And implies some personal choices, like renounce to do a lot of the things that one what to do, and we can’t do so many things at a time, and we only end frustrated. Lots of blogs to read, a mountain of books on the shelf, hundreds of hours of music that we’re no going to enjoy… too many things, too little time.
I’m learning to use 43 things. The comments in the site are valuable.
Empece por colocar mis 43 cosas como fondo de pantalla y también las cargue a mi PDA en una “to do list”.
El fin de semana voy a meditar un poco sobre ellas.
I started placing a wallpaper with my 43 things on it. I also download it to my PDA in a “to do list”.
I’ll meditate on this things over the weekend.
