Hello @nguyenthaonguyen,
Your post made me smile😊
I believe they did serve their purpose back then to add some value to my life and my experience.
That's a good way of looking at it, and I do believe that to be true🤗
Thanks for the tip on that Japanese book, I've only heard of Marie Kindo, not this one.
I like the tone, and the feelings you've expressed. It's great that you don't feel any lesser for going from big grand vehicles to small bicycles.
I do have a similar experience; I owned a small sports car when I lived in Jamaica because it was essential to have my personal vehicle in Jamaica, (the car is still there) but I haven't driven in ages, and hopefully I won't ever need to own a car.
I love bicycles, and that's the only thing I might consider getting.
I love your journey to minimalism, and as you've said, a little at a time. I will be doing some spring cleaning soon.
Welocme to the community, see you around:)
Thanks Camille for reading my post and welcoming me.
A small sports car must be nice 😄 Is it a manual transmission?
I'm happy to join the community and always excited to hear others' journey. This journey makes me feel fuller and more alive and conscious than ever before. It's still a long process for me of learning and struggling with the urge to buy and accumulate things. But it's going well with the support from like-minded community and members like you.
I hope we all can start spring cleaning as I have seen the same activity in my community here.
Enjoy being simple and have a Merry Christmas!🤶
Hello @nguyenthaonguyen,
Thanks for your thoughtful reply:)
It is a process indeed to abide by minimalism and stay on that path, as there's always temptations, and society forcing you to want more.
My car is actually an automatic, as in Jamaica our imports of cars are mainly automatic.
You sound fairly levelled headed to me and I have no doubt that you are happy and will find the strength and courage to continue living your simple and minimalistic life too.
I'm looking forward to hearing more of your stories:)
Thank you for your encouraging words. I'm continuing on this journey and yes, I always pray for strength and courage to live fully and more gently towards Mother Earth! :)
