WILLINGNESS TO QUESTION

There must be a willingness to question what it means to have a “good life.” It’s frustrating that so many people still very much define a good life in terms of how much they can buy, how lavishly they can live, how many things they can own. But really, so many people have been living well with so much less — but with much more in terms of health, relations, and how they are able to help others or contribute to their community. A good life is one where we can live in harmony within nature.
