Living it out

I've written a few times about living a simple life:
John Wesley's thoughts on living simple
Giving everything away
The life we have if we do give it away
And Dierks Bentley's song Better Believer.

Throughout those writings, I never come to the conclusion that we should give up everything physically.  Others have had different conclusions.

Here is a guy who is living quite the simple life. Suelo has given up all he owns and is living off of love and generosity.  Quite an interesting experiment.  Here is his introduction from his blog profile:

I've been totally without cents since Autumn of 2000 (except for a couple months in 2001). I don't use or accept money or conscious barter - don't take food stamps or other government dole. My philosophy is to use only what is freely given or discarded & what is already present & already running (whether or not I existed). I don't see money as evil or good: how can illusion be evil or good? But I don't see heroin or meth as evil or good, either. Which is more addictive & debilitating, money or meth? Attachment to illusion makes you illusion, makes you not real. Attachment to illusion is called idolatry, called addiction. I simply got tired of acknowledging as real this most common world-wide belief called money! I simply got tired of being unreal. Money is one of those intriguing things that seems real & functional because 2 or more people believe it is real & functional!

His blog Moneyless World chronologs his life without money.  Quite an interesting read.  Check it out.
