We spend so much of our time collecting, gathering, purchasing… hoarding.
It’s no wonder life feels heavy at times.

Lighter is a highly underrated, not talked about enough strategy for living.
What most of us are doing is rucking through life, exhausting ourselves, and rather than looking for ways to lighten our loads—we counterproductively and somewhat obsessively look for ways we can add more weight to what we’re already carrying.
…Often disguised as luxury goods, status upgrades, hyper convenience, even more comfortable, and retail therapy.
I’m convinced there’s a direct connection between the amount of stuff we have / are responsible for and the weight we feel on our shoulders.
