Dangers of becoming complacent

[Sekwo]

I would quite happily live a more simple life, I have before, but then I'm a bit of a luddite, more than happy when I'm grubbing in the soil or watching the animals.

I love the simple life, but I just don't like the backbreaking toil that is required to live the "simple life". However, we may not have a lot of choice on the matter, and then those who have learnt how to live the "simple life", stand a much higher chance of surviving.
