From One Extreme

I see things like "Hoarding: Buried Alive" which is a show that features families living in an environment that is overrun with items. These items can be strewn haphazardly, or stacked orderly, but always impeeding the quality of life and useability of the home environment. To be direct, these people hold on to too many items and are happy.


And then i see things like "Minimalism" which is a chosen lifestyle in which a person is able to list every item that person personally owns on one hand. (okay, i'm kind of exagerating, but still.) Pictures of homes that Minimalist live in will show a room that has possibly a rug, a couch, a curtian, a coffee cup, and a bare lightbulb as the ONLY items in said room. And the coffee cup is pushing it. These people strive to have a few items as possible and are happy.




And then there's me. Trapped somewhere in the middle. Always on the verge of what i feel might be Hoarding and wishing i could take a few steps closer to Minimalism.


What to do? What to do?
Isn't life great when the only thing i can find to complain about is that i have Too Much stuff? lol
