This has really made me realise that pretty much everything i'd kept because i wanted to save it for my children or just in case, didn't really matter in the whole scheme of things. It's made me a lot less materialistic & sentimental about material things. So now i only buy if i absolutley need it or if i don't have anything else already that will do the job.

We culled and with each move, we found that we had less to get rid of. Now I can't bring myself to have things we don't really love. We use our good things, we display our treasures and we pass on the things that are sitting in cupboards not being used. Our house is much more pleasant to live in and cleaning is an easier proposition.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814984506642537843.post-62928634364796538722012-01-13T20:52:28.776+11:002012-01-13T20:52:28.776+11:00A good friend of mine said one day " the more...A good friend of mine said one day " the more you have, the more you have to look after", I know ask myself do I really care enough to keep and treasure this, and often ask myself this when I see something cute that I don't need.
