Unnecessary Necessities? by @jhymi
I can’t eliminate any of these expenses so I’ve got to find a way to reduce them so that the mental and of course, financial strain doesn’t become too much to bear. There’s none of them I can do without and the importance of having them is all quite clear to me so the ways I can improve, especially for the hair and skin is finding the most compatible products and sticking by them.
Bearing down on the cost of healthcare: my minimalist approach to family and friends by @jjmusa2004
Being a medic, I knew what would benefit my parents in terms of their health. I used to stock up on many over-the-counter medications, such as antimalarials, antibiotics, analgesics, etc., as a quick intervention and, most times, complete treatment and resolution of disease conditions that came knocking. It's fine; they are appreciative and proud to have their son as a medic who is available to treat rather than struggle at any hospital to access care.
My Journey Through Personal Growth by @phyna
Towards the end of last year, my main focus shifted from pursuing physical beauty to enhancing my inner beauty. I was mentally and physically sound but I wasn’t emotionally groomed, I only realized this last year.
How, I Have Grown by @trucklife-family
I could easily, lose myself, feeling overwhelmed, by my current life. If I spend my time, focusing on the amount of hours I am working. The busyness. But instead, I just get on with it. I just do it. Every day I get up and just do it. Walk 2 hours a day, to and from work. Then off to some of my cleaning jobs and gardening work.
Collect Memories & Assets, Not Dust...by @macchiata
Throughout the years, my life changes and so are the things in my room. For example, I didn’t really have a gaming chair and a proper table until the last few years. I didn’t even really have boxes to store my items. I kept everything very minimal because at some point, my life was mobile. So, there was no need for me to have more than a few basic necessities.
Converting Fears To Strengths: A Chapter of Self-growth by @ayane-chan
Throughout the years, I’ve been gradually conquering my fears of dealing with people and it is one of the hardest journeys that I ever had. Some of you might be like me, the one that’s nonchalant, quiet, and mostly alone because I’m naturally an introverted kind of person. I often prefer a quiet and peaceful environment, books and music over chatting, and to watch movies, tv series and documentaries rather than to socialize.
Reflection: The Past Shouldn't Be Better. by @balikis95
Emotionally, financially, physically, and spiritually, I was lost. Series of sickness took hold of me like a tick on my skin. So strong that it didn't let go. I was diagnosed with something I never thought of, and I wasn't even able to cry because the sickness had taken away my tears. I couldn't even think because the internal pain made it unbearable, too.
DD Shining: Growth As I Have Come to Know It…by @deraaa
This state of mind can be painful because we ourselves shred our achievements and fail to acknowledge just how far we have come. We forget that things are not the way they used to and compare with how they should be. We forget to be grateful. Which is why the dark times are always there.
Some tips
🔸 The community encourages authors to engage and build rapport with other team members by leaving meaningful comments.
🔸 If possible we recommend that authors try to use personal photos, however, if free images from the internet are used, please be sure to cite all relevant sources for photos and text.
🔸 Just a reminder that the weekly #KISS Blog Ideas is presented with ideas on topics to write about and to help you to structure your blogs, they are not meant to be questionnaires for you to list information and publish.
🔸 The presentation of your blog goes a long way and sharing aspects of your lives and your personal stories and experiences should be a lot more than a list that can be found in various places over the web.
🔸 You do not need to wait or only blog in response to the prompts provided. You're free to share any aspect of your minimalist lifestyle at any time.
Thank you for checking out the #MoreOrLessTheBest Curation Compilation presented by The Minimalist. This is the new official community account, where the weekly #KISS Blog Ideas and all community events and activities will be published from.
I invite you all to get involved and share your stories about minimalism, and perhaps you would like to invite someone.
