One thing I realized from our trip away to Ballina this week was how little we actually needed to be happy and content.
I only wore one third of the clothes I took away, and we only took away 2 toys for the kids (out of hundreds they have at home).
When we got home one of the first things I noticed was the amount of cleaning we had to do, cleaning clothes and dishes, and the amount of picking up we had to do now that the kids had access to 100 toys again.
This made me think that maybe, just maybe, all the “stuff” we have and are accumulating is actually creating more work for us and having a detrimental impact on our lives.
Time to sell some things and de-clutter. The only question is…what am I happy to let for of?
