Dear ketzer:

What a delightful post. I like the metaphoric use of Living-off-the-grid. Maybe one day you will be sitting in your cabin, physically living off the grid, writing a book titled Living Off the Grid.

I think people-pleasing, trying to be liked by people is a big draw to living on the grid and I need to be careful because I do have this motivation when interacting with people in-person. I don’t want to do that: to say things so to be approved by another. I think it is an automatic behavior, meant to keep the members of herd animals in line with the herd.

Living off the grid would be really, separating from the herd. I hope you post more here, I’d like to read more of your thoughts on this topic (as well as other people’s thoughts).
