This site is devoted to exploring topics related to achieving and maintaining a reasonable life in a world that is generally hostile to the concept. These primary include issues relating to the challenges of modern life and finding practical (and reasonable) solutions to them.
At the heart of this process lies Thoreau’s classic challenge:
“…to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
