Conscious consumption is a good slogan to live by. Also, think about what you want vs what you need. Yes, I know that consumers are bombarded with so many gadgets that promote a more simple life. But sometimes all the various gadgets complicate one's life. I believe that having too many pairs of shoes and too many clothes that glutter up one's closet my cause depression to a degree. To see clearly, we don't need so many material things, but we need to work on our outlook about life and our perspective concerning health, love and happiness. Great post!
