Lightening the load

I’m sick of my stuff. I have too much of it. I threw out my bed, sold my television, and I’m getting rid of my books and excess clothing tomorrow. This stuff will be replaced with tranquil empty space (they’ll be pictures).

I’m tired of the cyclical nature of money and work. I work all week to buy more stuff which requires maintenance and space which costs more money. Making more money just made me spend more further perpetuating the cycle.

Sleeping on the floor and in my hammock for the past few weeks has felt great. I no longer have trouble sleeping and I’ve discovered a new sense of freedom. I suppose it sounds strange that just throwing things out would make me feel free but it does and I don’t plan on going back.
