downsize

starting to downsize in possessions.
all excess to be sold on eBay.

what is really needed?
simple things, just enough stuff you use every day.

i started to de-clutter, well the few things i have and don't ever seem to use.
everyone has their favorite things they use day in day out.
why not just stick to those and rid yourself of all else?
so if the day comes all can fit in the car and your off to new adventures..

one handbag, one purse, just the ones you really love and use constantly anyway..
the favorite jeans you wear for weeks (well, not really in one go though).
couple of t-shirts and a few more sophisticated clothing for going out, or showing off..

the electric guitar you've always wanted, and everything with an 'apple' on.
well, the affordable i-series products at least..

and there you go.
no complications, no worry about, what shoes to wear today?
two pairs of trainers, boots and the elegant high heels.
a coat, a jacket, the fitting scarf and leather gloves.

i'm not a hat-person, so scratch those...

less distractions make for better focus on what you want.
you take more care, cause the items are dear to you.

self-storage? waste of space..
why store what will never come in use again?

i can hear women screaming country-wide.
10 bags and 5x more in shoes - the standard stock take in common wardrobes..
20 jeans, all the same, half don't fit but take up space.
tops and shirts galore, and each shopping trip adds to it more and more.

the shelves are stuffed, the walk-in bursts at its seams.
we crave the pleasure to have and keep, though no-one ever needs.

thx for reading :)
