@thehomesteadingrd: Real talk. I had the fancy career. The nice car. The newly remodeled house with the perfect kitchen. Yearly beach vacations. Were we really happy, though? Is this really what “living” is all about? I don’t think so. While life was comfortable, it still felt empty and unfulfilling. We were exhausted from the rat race. I quit my job and we traded it all for a tiny cabin in the woods with an outhouse and green carpet in the kitchen, a dumpy old car that dies all the time, bugs galore, and we haven’t taken a vacation in years. Why? For the first time, we truly feel free. Free from societal pressures. Escape from the noise. Freedom to create the life WE actually want. Freedom to just be. I’ll take a day in the woods over a beach vacation any day. Anyone else? Would you trade it all for a tiny cabin in the woods? 😅 #slowdownandenjoylife #selfsufficientliving #homesteading #growyourownfood
The house and the career only truly, authentically work for a small subset of the general population, right? A lot more of us are raised in it and fake it and wonder why life feels dehumanizing and draining. But some lucky few of us always escape back to nature and show the way for others 🧚♂️

I have wanted this since I was 18! I guess it’s on me because I never did it. Now more than ever it looks very appealing.
