Going of grid doesn't seem to bad but it would be difficult. The reasons of doing it would be to expand and appropriate more of God, brings me closer to him and I'm more reliant towards him.

Since I would be off grid, for the Lord, I would need a bible. You may still praise him with everything you do but, nobody's perfect, we all need something or someone to go to when we are struggling. That's what the Bible's for. When my hope is failing or I just want to give up I can reading his word. Also it makes for good topic with “neighbors”.
Item two. I need food and transportation. By bring some chickens for meat and eggs, cows for milk and beef, horses for transportation and goats for whool I would be set for food and but there is still one thing I'm sure I would need to live in the valley of a mountain…A weapon.
Item three. I would need a weapon that's amo will not run out, well in this case can be remade easily and that is a Bow and arrow. When the bow runs out of amo and I'm sure it will since I will be there for a year I will need to be able to remake some easily.

    The American Dream, as described by Lennie and George, is “’…a little house and a couple of acres an’ a cow and some pigs and-‘ ‘An’ live off the fatta the lan’,’” (Steinbeck 14). Their dream is a simple, quaint house on a ranch with just enough sustenance for the two of them to live off of. Their dream doesn’t include fame and riches, like most dreams do. Their dream is modest and plain- just enough for them to get by on. George continues on about their dream home on page 57. “’We’d jus’ live there. We’d belong there…. No, sir, we’d have our own place where we belonged and not sleep in no bunk house.’”(Steinbeck 57). They want a simple life where they could feel like they belong and have a sense of “home.”…

    Living in Minooka has been beneficial to me in many ways that I sometimes do not even realize. To begin, most of my family resides in Minooka and they have been since my mother was in high school. It is a comfortable feeling knowing that if I ever need anything I have my family close by. Being so close allows us to visit each other frequently and have that family time, which I personally believe is important. I am forever grateful that most of my family resides here in Minooka because of the opportunities it gives me.…
