Everyday Baggage

Hi all,

How was your week? I hope you all had a great week. I want to discuss the extras in our lives today. Our baggage in a sense.

We hear discussion of minimalism and how to apply it every now and then. The less we own, the better we feel (as long as our basic needs are covered). This has some advantages: (i) there are fewer things to get attached to, which helps us to focus on ourselves, (ii) the clutter in our living space is reduced, which in turn helps reduce the clutter in our minds and (iii) we spend less money. I have been a natural minimalist in this sense all my life, I think and I can tell you that it is great.

But I believe we need to be minimalist in other areas of our lives too and in those, I failed in those terribly…
