hamster wheel and run as fast as we could.\u00a0 You know what I mean \u2013 go to school, get a job, pay a mortgage, prepare for retirement, etc.\u00a0 But it doesn\u2019t have to be that way.\u00a0 If you truly want to unplug from the system and live your life off the grid, you can.\u00a0 Of course it isn\u2019t easy, but nothing in life really worth doing ever is.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, the lives of
