A Simple Life✨

[Ruthanne]

I liked this because in some ways resembles my life. I am going to eliminate the clutter and be closer to this kind of life. I think it's freeing and will help my spirit and body and mind feel lighter in many ways. I have a goal of doing this sometime soon. So, simple to me is to declutter and go back to basics, go to thrift stores and stop spending too much

I love this. (Only wish I could get Huzz to feel the same way, but then he was deprived all to heck and gone growing up--lived in their car a couple of times growing up...in 100F weather...and his mom was pregnant one of the times--so I guess that's why he's only happy with everything new and fancy. You know, the next time anybody repeats that old saying to you about how being poor is good for you because it "builds character", you can tell 'em I said phooey on that.)

Yes! Accumulation of material things bind the soul to the earth, when it aches to be free!
Let go your shackles and soar with angels!

except books. You gotta have books.

Actually it’s exactly how I am living now. 2 years ago I downsized into a 855 sq ft condo with 3 closets and half of one has my son’s stuff. I don’t have clutter and only kept things that bring me joy. It’s quick to clean it.

I have a balcony that overlooks the courtyard so I can sit outside and enjoy the view without having any work. It’s easy living and I love it. Plus I have become friends with 4 women who also live here. It’s nice to have friends that you can get together with on a spontaneous basis.

Sounds like heaven; I'm envious.
