Earlier this week we talked about the man who completely removed himself from society and lives in the national park living off the environment. I found this really interesting that a man even in today's society which is focused on materialism and wealth can withdrawal completely. Its amazing what a trip to a third world country can do for you. He went to work at an impoverished Latin American country which had not much going for them. But as he studied he realized that as they became wealthier their happiness decreased. I find it amazing that someone can be happy living off nothing and barely has a place to live. Im not saying that the life of the ultra-rich is practical either. I think we need to find a healthy balance between the two in order to live in the society we do today.
