Simple ain't easy either. Fix yer plumbing, fix yer roof, fix yer fence, feed yer chickens (yes, every day!), clean their poop, etc. etc. etc.
Homesteading is a lot of work, and you can't just go away for a weekend to visit a friend or explore a new city. It needs constant attention, and the more "independent/self-reliant/off-the-grid" you want to be, the more you need to do everything yourself.
And even then you need to buy supplies and materials. You're not going to grow a year's-worth of food in your backyard vegetable patch, and you're not gonna make your own lumber, pvc, copper wire, etc.
There's a lot you can do to achieve a greater degree of independence, but ultimately it's still dependencies all the way down.
Even the Buddha recognized the interconnectedness of everything in the world; he wasn't just some detached stoic with a community of self-sustaining monks. They depended on the generosity of their surrounding communities, and to this day Buddhist monks still do.
