For the past several months, I have made the conscious choice to go media free. I have given up television, radio, and print media to focus on the “micro life” of everyday living. I have made some remarkable discoveries. I think I have found the secret to happy living.
Discovery #1: I find that I can hear my own thoughts much more clearly, and in many regards, I feel as though my life has slowed to the point of awareness of each passing moment. I feel alive and eager.
Discovery #2: I feel more relaxed and happy … free to roam like a cowgirl out on the range, appreciating the simple pleasures of a starry night and bright dawn.
Discovery #3: I have found more satsifaction in each day. I am unencumbered by thoughts of politics, violence or “things” that I want but don’t have. I find I have positive connections with others and more time for meaningful interactions.
Discovery #4: Most important of all, I have realized that everything I really need is mine already. Each day I choose my path for the beauty and pleasure it provides.
Yes, it’s true … all this from tuning out the words of others and tuning in the voice from within. From where I stand, this is the good life. But, I’m always looking to improve. At this moment, one way to make this good life better, is to share the goodness with others.

This is so thought provoking! I have for years believed that there are more people on this earth who live without media than with it. And they’re getting along just fine — perhaps even better than the rest. How liberating it must be to focus on that which you can control. Congratulations on finding happiness and thank you for inspiring me to seek it more actively in the simple and beautiful rituals of daily living (e.g., toilette à la bodylish).
