it's so easy to feel like so many things matter though. Focus with priorities is such a challenge. I find that so many of the physical things I own, I keep because I like the story of that 'thing'.
When I was moving away from Hawaii two summers ago, I gave away so many clothes and books and as I put things in the box to giveaway, I told stories of my relationship to them and it was like each had an honorary funeral service for my farewell. Honestly such a rewarding and fun experience. I highly recommend.
carry only what matters. that's a great life motto

Very cool. I’d imagine that intentionally parting with your stuff means you actually get to let it go while keeping the best of what it brought you.
And letting the rest be beautifully impermanent ❤️
There's no reason to pretend there's permanence for everything. It makes moments less tender and special <3
You remind me of the woman who backpacked along the California pacific coast trail on her own! You’re so brave :)
