I have always owned very little. I would rather give and collect love.

If I am in public places (shopping, theatre, etc.) I take hand sanitizer with me.

I am trying to become full time minimalist. I find it gives me more mind space and less chaos.

I'm a "collector" by nature, and habit, that is, whatever it is that I do, I do lots of it, then variations of the same thing... so music, movies, coffee, etc. etc. I've known people who buy a magazine, read it, then discard it, and that's a complete contrast to me where things slowly build up. I am slowly divesting myself of all these things I have "collected" over the years, but it takes times, as one becomes "married" or linked or "identified" strongly with whatever one has acquired, and so it's difficult to let go...
