City Myth, Country Truth

There is a city myth that country life was isolated and lonely; the truth is that farmers and their families then had a richer social life than they have now, they enjoyed a society organic, satisfying and whole, not mixed and thinned with the life of town, city and nation as it is now. ~Rose Wilder Lane

However, it’s satisfying to know we can turn back to the farm to balance the chaos and find fulfillment.
