Vicious Circles

We work hard to buy things that make us need to work harder in order to maintain, protect and insure. Who is truly free? If you had to decide tomorrow morning to go off on an adventure, for 3years, could you? What do you possess that holds you back, what would be the repercussions? I am by no means a minimalist and do enjoy the comforts of modern living but the life of the eternal adventurer at this stage, seems a distant dream. Perhaps something to aspire to when the boys are all grown up, what a treat it would be to do it with them, what would they learn how would they cope in traditional schooling upon their return? Would they be left behind by the system or would they thrive with a much broader perspective of life and how to live it.
