Have you ever considered turning your back on materialism to join an intentional community?
To live more communally and less commercially?
To share resources and responsibilities with other like-minded folks?
Well . . . before you jump ship, make sure those like-minded folks are really to your liking.
Especially if there are no bathroom doors!
Last night, we watched a quirky comedy, Wanderlust, starring Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd as a young married couple exploring alternative lifestyles after the hectic pace of New York City . . . outpaces them.
Chance and happenstance lead them to Elysium ~ an intentional community in Georgia populated by more than a few colorful characters, including Alan Alda.
Sometimes LESS is more . . . and sometimes LESS is just bizarre.
In time, after more than a few missteps, they realize WHO they are and HOW they want to live.
Aah . . . that’s better!
