In my never-ending quest to figure out "where are all the people like me hiding?" I discovered an interesting label: Intentional Living. The most obvious forms are people like vegans and Quakers, but I think a lot of people have an intentional living philosophy and don't fit into any other obvious category. I discovered this quote that could be the beginning of a manifesto for Intentional Living:

I want to think about living and what is important in life, to clarify my thinking--and also my life. Mostly we tend--I do too--to live on automatic pilot, following through the views of ourselves and the aims we acquired early, with only minor adjustments. No doubt there is some benefit--a gain in ambition or efficiency--in somewhat unthinkingly pursuing early aims in their relatively unmodified form, but there is a loss, too, when we are directed through life by the not fully mature picture of the world we formed in adolescence or young adulthood.

This quote is in the introduction to The Examined Life, by Robert Nozick, one of the most important philosophers of the 20th Century. When I read that I just thought to myself, "Yes!"
