I would like to be here...


i watched part of a programme last night about women hoarders.. people with 5 wardrobes full of jeans, endless items never worn..
and it makes me think..
i own way too much.
sandals
notebooks
jeans
my 3 most significant items of excess.
i long for a life of pared down simplicity, where i don't covet things..
i will take a load to the charity shop on sunday. that's a promise.
and i won't replace it with more.
i will not buy another sandal this summer.
that's a promise too.

my fingers are not crossed.

this house, is the embodiment of the simplicity i desire.
and yet, i know i will never, ever, ever.. live anywhere like it. damn.
