It means quietness,privacy, harmony and peace for me.Living in the country requires an active lifestyle.It involves activities like doing daily chores, preparing firewood for winter heating, feeding animals including pets and livestock, tending the garden,or securing fences, etc. For me,the most attractive activities are fishing, hunting and hiking.I enjoy seeing what nature has to offer everyday through a simple walk down the little trail, or a relaxing drive along the country road with patches of green grass ornamented with wildlife sightings of birds, moose, bears, deer, etc.Living the country life helps us appreciate some of the simpler things, things that make us feel good about ourselves and the world. It may be just a get together on a Saturday at the local farmers market, or a project or a problem that the community might pull together to help solve.I have participated in a few community projects, like dealing with out-of-control grass fires, a roof that collapsed from a large snow fall, or even helping a recent widow with fire wood for the winter. Sometimes I am surprised by how much benefit we receive from helping others and as for this community I can' t say enough.I really enjoy living the country life.
