Purposeful Lifestyle
Lifestyle is a way of life that reflects an individual or group's values, attitudes and preferences and resulting choices, behaviors and habits. When a society as a whole shares the same values, attitudes and preferences, they adopt the same customs and a culture develops. The community in which a person resides affects the lifestyle available to them. In the case of France, once you get out of the big cities, the pace slows and a more purposeful lifestyle becomes evident. (I'm differentiating between a purposeful life and a purposeful style of living.) I'm talking about going about daily activities with purpose--taking the time to make activities intentional and more meaningful. It's very much about living in the moment. This favored lifestyle revolves a lot around socializing and food.
