What Stuff Does To Us

From the book Frugillionaire by Francine Jay, who also happens to be a minimalist (frugality and simplicity sometimes go together), she writes:

"Possessions are like anchors.  They tether us to our homes, because moving them makes it a hassle to relocate.  They bind us to our jobs, because we must earn the money to pay for them.  And they weigh on our souls, because even when we tire of them it's hard to throw them away.  Avoid becoming a slave to stuff by owning just enough to meed your needs.  You'll not only gain financial freedom, you'll break the bonds of clutter." 

These are reasons and motivation to declutter!
