Moving (May 12)

You will never realize how much stuff you have until you are moving and have to find a way to get all of your stuff from one place of residence to the next and then find a spot for all your stuff at the next residence. When everything that you own is put in boxes as much as is possible you might even be able to build your own little residence out of the boxes and surely enough all your stuff would provide solid insulation. And then to think that when you do move, there is an untold amount of things that you are likely to give away or throw out. Things that you no longer need and things that you might want but perhaps there just isn't a place for those things and a sacrifice must be made. Perhaps moving is one of the best things that one can do from the simple standpoint of coming to a realization of how much stuff you do have. There are only so many things that one needs in life and then there is an untold amount of things that one could want but how much of that stuff that one wants is actually going to be used enough to justify having that stuff? Sure there are things that you will want in case of an emergency and then there are things that you will want just so that you can have fun. At what point does the collection of things become a waste of money that could be saved and invested to spend at a later time on something more important, like your health. Moving is a great way to show you the amount of stuff that you do have and even if it is as simple as moving things from one place to another within the same residence the practice of moving could be a healthy solution to the problem of all that stuff.
