DOING WITHOUT
             This story is a editorial about to choose a life of simplicity rather than unnecessary and pointless complexity. In this story brooks informs about the perspectives of people in todays world and how they can change them to improve their life style. He talks about how its funny that the most simple solution to a less stressful and simpler life seems so complex to everyone, when its simply, the choice of simplicity. David speaks of other people and groups in the past who lived with this mindset, like the quakers. Informing of how people who chose to live without unnecessary things lived and what they were able to achieve. I think that the article was titled from the right because people on the left side may have a different perspective on the opinion and will be compared to that of the people on the right. Davids point was pretty solid but I don't agree completely with it. I do believe that their are a lot of things we choose to place in our lives that are pointless and it would be better if we didn't have them. But at the same time life shouldn't be simple, thats the whole adventure of it, to go and be in a complex situation you have to get yourself out of. Life is meant to be meaningful and having an intent purpose, not a day to day simple motion, a complex structure supporting the truest version of yourself.
