Thank God for this week prompt (week 114) it gave me time to reflect on so many things. let's quickly take a look at what the prompt says;
What are your top three reasons for choosing a minimalist? Illustrate your choice with some snapshots from your daily life
Everyone has a reason for living the way they are living, as for me, my reasons are not far fetched. Just grab your popcorn and let's gist about it 😄 I promise you I am not gonna bore you with long talk....
- Spending on things that matters: I can't see myself buying what I did not plan to buy. Never! I don't like spending unnecessary money which is why I prioritise what is important, buying what I truly need and not just buying for buying sake. That's why, I can't really remember the last time I bought clothes for myself and that's because there's no need, the money I will use in buying clothes will go a long way on pot of soup 😂
Having less but being contented; Let's be true to ourselves, it is not easy to have less and still be looking like you have everything. I am the type of person that doesn't like stress so I am always okay with what I have even if it's not much. For instance, I have only two footwear in my entire life 😂 I use one for church and the other one for normal outing. Believe me, if you see me in this footwears, you will know there is a sense of fulfillment and contentedness within me, you will think I have everything because the way I will be smiling alone will confuse you😂
Seeking inner peace; You know there's nothing like living a life without peace, I mean, that's a waste of living, lol! Knowing that, I am going to the Market to buy things that matters alone gives me peace, watching myself been content with the little I have give me joy. Not thinking of material things, or how I can buy the latest shoe gives me peace. I priotize gratitude even when what I have seems like it's not enough and this gives me peace of mind as well.

Being intentional and finding peace with the little resources is great gain. And I'm glad you do not engage in spontaneous buying even though some occasions may call for it. Good script here.
Yeah
