I've decided to begin a minimalist lifestyle journey, & I'm already going full force. I believe there's a lot to be said for having a happy, fulfilling life without measuring happiness by possessions. It's more fulfilling by far to be a great friend, daughter, spouse, relative, etc. Its not that difficult for me to be a minimalist as it is for some because I come from a low- income family. I've lived in a 2 bedroom apartment with 2 other families & mine, in an apartment that didn't have running water, lived without electricity & gas every now & then. So, living with just the bare necessities isn't foreign to me. I've never been materialistic, but have found solace in material possessions to fill emotional voids in the past, & doing that never changed anything. For me, there has to be more to life. Minimalism can equal freedom for the future if you do things right. It can mean freedom form the chokehold of debt. And on a lighter note, who doesn't want less clutter & things that collect dust?? smile

Went to Green Fest this year, which was fun & helpful to my minimalist journey. That's a really great place for info! I talked my mom into going with me. Once she found out that the entire food court was vegetarian & I was buying her lunch, she was no longer hesitant! Bad thing is, I got a sunburn that day :/

that would be awesome to go to a class together. i used to be so flexible, but am a bit rusty.

and i feel ya on the minimalist thing. i need to stop buying things, and use my $ for experiences instead.

i am giving one of my couches to a friend so i can have a pillow area to relax, read and drink tea.
