You can buy happinesss....and it's cheap

I just finished the book "You can buy happiness (and it's cheap) by Tammy Strobel.

I really loved this book. It was so inspirational. It's about the life of a couple who is living the American dream; they have a nice place to live full of lots of stuff and own nice new cars. The problem was that they were commuting an hour or more to work a long work day to pay for all their stuff. So they decided to make a change: move to a small place, get rid of their stuff and sell their cars. Their goal was to live in a tiny house and live a simplified life.

 

 

They now are not living the American dream. They are living the simplified dream. No more long commutes or long hours. They have a very affordable house (tiny house), enjoy life, bike everywhere, and live simplified. We should all take away from this that we don't need lots of "stuff" to make us happy. Lets live the uncomplicated, simplified, self-sustaining dream.
