Well I'm in the middle of another existential crisis. I'm really ok, I'm calm and stable (I only feel guilty because I'm sleeping too much but that's because at the moment I'm not studying. I'll retake that next year so I'll be pretty busy in the morning, which I'm really eager to do). Sometimes I'm a bit sad, I think it's because all I'm doing is working (I don't like my job but it's useful for now) and I go running too.

The thing is that I've been thinking a lot that I would like to live a different lyfestyle. I would like to live in an Ecovillage to pursue a more meaningful, richer and healthier way of living. I haven't told anyone I know and I won't do it because most likely they will come up with the typical answers: You're crazy, that's insane, that's stupid, blah blah blah. I don't know, they may be right or they may be wrong. In any case, I won't know for myself until I try that out.

Most probably, I will continue studying Philosophy, which I love, then change my job when I finish with that. If I see I still can't be happy around the city, then I will change my lyfestyle. I think that's better than just going away all of a sudden, but on the other hand that may be the change I need, idk. For the time being I'll just visit some Ecovillages and if possible stay a few days with them whenever I have time so I can experience how they live.

If anyone has experience with this I would be glad to hear them. I want to hear other opinions, too.

Thanks for your time.
