Striving to live a more minimalist lifestyle is incredibly freeing. With every new empty space I create, I also send away just one more piece of clutter that had occupied my mind.. Like little weights lifting off me...they float away like a balloon that's been freed. It's not just about having less, it's about having the perfect amount, what you need. It's also about surrounding yourself only with the things that you love and bring inspiration to you... And your house begins to become a kind of sanctuary for inspiration for you. Also with less things, that means less items to manage, less to take care of and all that time cleaning, organizing, etc. can now be spent doing things I want to be doing, not just chores and maintaining shit I don't really care about. Lol I've become addicted to this game of paring down my life and I'm loving every minute of it!
