The Cookout

[Sapphire]

I have a friend, and I love her to death but she has got a problem with not letting things go. She keeps her place clean but she has so much stuff that it never looks tidy. Like shelves stacked up with stuff. Containers filled with things. I just can't with it. Every time I go there it makes me go home and clean. I like to keep things fresh and free-flowing. Like on my desk for example, I just have my keyboard, mouse, monitor shelf, monitor, PC, and a little cup to hold pens. That is it. I keep my planner on the monitor shelf. Everything else in my office space is tucked away and organized in those plastic drawers.

I am actually in the process of having a minimalistic of a life as possible. I was decluttering for 15 minutes this morning, and I took a break to respond to a few posts on here. I get stressed out by all these material possessions. I get more joy out of experiences. I do not like the maintenance that comes with having so much stuff. However, I am thankful that at any time I want to buy more stuff, I can do so.

Maximal minimalist is not just a style. It’s a mindset.

Like all things, it too has pros and cons. When it comes to one’s dwelling. It’s greatly worth it. Less clutter, means space.

One person was quoted some time ago about cleanliness next to Godliness and how a clear space represents a clear mind.

I have some family members in Missouri who seem to keep everything they have and never let anything go. Their house is a cesspool of roaches and everything else disgusting.

i am definitely a believer in having a clean environment as much as possible.
