In a simple life you have more freedom, more time and more remaining life force to focus on the single most important - love - love toward your partner, love toward your entire family, love toward your neighborhood and finally love toward all.
In a corporate or city life, there are so many obligations, contracts, appointments and meetings that your mind, your heart and most of your life force is fully used up for material part of that life style ... leaving nothing or little - too little in most cases - for love and a happy life.
Happiness in life above all requires lots of time for loving - for loving all as well as for loving your God-given family and partner.
All those having realized this secret recipe for happiness in life have reduced all outer engagements and involvements in business and focus on the really important part of life. Love and the truly basic needs for a loving happy life.
