The Twixters: Refusing to Grow Up by Illiad2006-11-19 12:55:59
  Interesting... by Kickstart 2005-01-27 11:53:43
I'm been feeling a lot of strangeness from some people when I talk about moving to our 5 acres and working less away from the land and much more on it. It seems few people understand that getting away from major consumer debt, from city expenses, and from stress...only to work hard on something you actually own...is a good and honourable thing.

Maybe one outreached arm of the same topic?
