Something about Autarkeia

Autarkeia: “literally means self-sufficiency, and it consists in limiting the desires in order to avoid the external conditioning  which are obstacles to achieve the inner freedom.

The Latin poet Orazio invites us to settle for our status and to meet our natural needs as simple as possible; He advises us to prefer nature to the cities and to appreciate the simple things.

One lives in a continual waiting: for a test result, a bus, a work, the recognition of our value, be accepted: mountains, instead, are waiting there for us: it's your trigger, you can't control it, so that you can't handle the waiting and just go, alone or with anybody.

The mountain has its rules and deserves respect, but it's never unjust because you can't cheat.

The mountai for us a place where we feel really free.
