the good life

I've been thinking a lot lately about what it means to live the good life. I think mothering has prompted me to consider what I want for Paloma and any other babies we have. Everyone has their own criteria, I suppose, for what's necessary for a comfortable, happy life. Here are a few:

- The basics. Food, shelter, clothing, education.

- The specifics. Ah, but what food! What shelter! And don't get me started on clothing and education.

Over the next few blog posts, I'll get into the specifics. Share your thoughts on the specifics that interest you most. I really want to hear your input.
