RE: Letting go...

in #philosophy6 years ago

From my side of the screen: you are doing great! Oh - I can get so irrationally attached to stuff - but who really needs all of it?

I remember my mother having to defend herself why she carried two kids and her groceries on one bicycle (I'm Dutch, so this sounds less weird to me than it must sound to you :')) instead of buying a car - but the truth is, my parents had to sell their car when I was born because hey - they couldn't do it all.

On my 13th birthday they finally got a car again, it took them 13 years to get there. But they would give up their car first thing if that was what was needed financially, since I believe they still see it as a luxury, not a necessity. (Plus, bicycling is way easier if your kids are not on the front and back of your bike plus a grocery basked on the steering wheel :'))

Great job @meno <3 Enjoy the getting rid process.

Thank you for the encouragement and kind words Rosa...
