5 Reasons Why the Amish are Lovely


5 Reasons Why the Amish are Lovely
“You May think us Amish are strange folk with our buggies, beards and barnyards”
SBS’s new heart warming reality show ‘Living with the Amish,’ offers an insight into the notoriously secluded Amish society. The program is atypical of the Amish community and was created to elucidate the advantages of living a pure and simple life. In fact, the show reminded me of Paris Hiltons idiotic show, ‘The Simple Life.’ Fortunately, ‘Living with the Amish’ has less psychopathic rich losers and lovelier, down-to-earth Amish folk. Although Amish culture is very strict about most things, rules and regulations brings everybody together with a sense of community. Writing this blog made me feel like a ‘reserved hippy,’ but at the same time, it did make me stop and think about what life is all about and how a few rules can actually inspire people to become an individual without superficial things like clothes.
