I am a bit of a hoarder, but it is not because I crave material things. Truth be told, to be without most of these things would make my life so much better, so much easier, but the sheer amount of stuff I have makes getting rid of it a daunting task. I would keep the things that help me create, like my musical instruments, my faceting equipment, tools, sporting equipment, and firearms, but the rest? I simply spend much of my time either rearranging it, or stepping around it. A can of gas and a match has been my best idea so far, but I'm sure my family would be pretty pissed.
I know that I really don't own anything since I won't be taking it with me when I die, and in the past few years the urge to purge has gotten stronger and stronger, but I don't know if I have the energy to actually get rid of it all.
Urge to purge! That tickles me deeply, thank you!
Rule of thumb: any stuff you own that you haven't used or even looked at in over a year might as well not even exist for you, because you don't need it.
That $500 special tool doesn't get used much but when it does, I thank the tool truck.
I need a bigger thumb. I have shit that has been in boxes for 30 years. I wasn't even thinking of that crap. Dang, the elephant just got bigger.
