I agree as long as your basic needs of food, water, shelter, energy, security and relationships is met. If I grow my own food and husband my own animals, draw clean drinking water, provide my own energy needs and have meaningful relationships with family and friends then I am living simply and abundantly. It doesn't matter if that's on 1/4 acre or 1000 acres. Abundance and minimalism can be rather subjective, don't you think?
