Less stuff, more happiness

by The Philosophical Fish

Once upon a time we bought a small condo. The plan was to move up into a bigger condo in a few years, then a townhouse, then eventually a house. Then we bought a boat, and priorities changed a bit. Why did we want a bigger place for just two of us? I’m a clutter hater, so more room just meant more space to fill with more stuff. Sure, we might “want” a bigger place…but do we really “need” it? No. Many years later we have stayed in that small condo and it works well. Less space means that we have to be somewhat ruthless in what comes home. But even now, I get antsy from time to time that we have too much stuff, so that usually sets me off on a toss-it-out binge.
