Tired of stuff

Everyone wants stuff.

They fill their houses with stuff, and buy cabinets, drawers, storage boxes to fill with more stuff.

They buy stuff with money they don't have.

And they get bored with the stuff 10 minutes after getting them.

I'm a stuff-buyer, myself.

I'm trying to move away from wanting things, and focusing instead on what I have.

It's difficult.

It's difficult because I grew up with my parents wanting stuff, and people around me fantasizing about the new things they want. They want the latest phone, a cool car, gaming consoles, clothes, whatever.

Although I can say that I've avoided that kind of thinking, it's still exhausting to always want stuff and be trapped in that kind of thinking.

I sometimes fantasize about selling everything and living in a remote island away from it all.

Peaceful, serene and happy.
