I'm not sure I can comment on living life simpler?, but to live life happier does take an effort to disengage from the routine or ruts our lives tend to follow.

I believe in being happy, so do what makes you happy. One of the biggest things I do each year is move to my summer lakeshore cabin where no computers, phones, TVs are allowed. I live there for July and August; sometimes Sept and June too; depending on work. During this time I focus on enjoying everyday at the lake.... recharges my batteries everytime and its great for the family, friends relationships.

In the winter I take off to the ski mountain for skiing and sledding often.

I think my first step towards living a freer (sp? Free-er) and possibly a simpler life would be learning how to live "without" a pay cheque. Next would be without an alarm clock.

Easiest way to be happy is not to grow up too much; keep a playful heart, enjoy life!
Good luck to ya!
