Are the Amish happy with their lifestyle?
"Happiness" is hard to quantify. However, the fact that Amish communities have managed to survive and prosper even in America, and the fact that more than 90% of the members remain within the faith (even when given the chance to leave) certainly indicates that the Amish feel good about their life and their faith. To many outsiders, life in an Amish community might seem very gendered and regimented, and such a life might not be everyone's choice; but for most Amish, they would not change a thing: it is what they believe and how they want to live.
Can an outsider be barefoot in Amish country?
Well, it's not impossible. There are two kinds of Amish communities, the Old Order, which is EXTREMELY hard to get in, and the New Order, which is much easier. But still, it is extremely hard for outsiders to become Amish. You have to walk away from all the conveniences, such as TV, computers, telephones...even a radio! You must learn to speak German, and talk to the bishop on joining the community. Even after you have a farm in the Amish community, you will still suffer from the suspicions of most of the Amish people. They will not trust you at first, but if you prove your faith to the church, you will soon be accepted into the Amish community. In all, you must be patient, kind, and have complete faith in God. Good luck!
