A paradise province far away from cities - living on an island can be beautiful
The more complex your life - the more the beauty of life is destroyed and disappears. The more complex your life - the less happiness remains. The beauty of Philippine island life often is the result of the right mixture of simplicity of life with the minimum needed high tech in life to keep up in communication and development of the really needed features of life.
Most of what we have and believe to need in western countries is nothing more but substitute for a once lost happiness in our all life. Complex life style leads to high expenses in life and requires lots of working hours, taxes, fees and administration to be paid. The overhead suddenly is greater than the actual benefit of our high end life styles.
Reduce your life style to a more natural living and find more time for love, for friends, for family, for God and to enjoy all above given by God.
