I have only been on this minimalism journey for a few months and it has really opened up conversations with people who I never thought I would have effected. I didn’t really think anyone would find my journey interesting. My lifestyle change is in no way supposed to make anyone feel guilty or shy away from me because you think I am going to lecture you or come to your house and purge your closet. I am trying to live a minimalist life, but I am far from perfect at it. The lifestyle itself has so many levels and I never intend to live in a tent by the river with all I own in a duffle bag. I am trying to live a life with purpose and meaning and my clutter is getting in the way of that.
I am amazed at the stories I am hearing, I realized that many people struggle with the issue of clutter, whether that is mental and or physical clutter, it all can weigh heavy on us.
The unexpected happened:
- friends downsizing their cars.
- friends looking at budget and rethinking purchases
- conversations about the keeping up with the Jones-es and how we all do it
- people amazed that I only have 33 items in my closet.
I am so very honored that you all are reading and in some form grasping this minimalist life, I am learning and taking it day by day. Keep visiting and the content is always evolving to help you find your own level of minimalism.
I would love to hear your stories! comment often I want to see your progress!
