I totally agree with you. Minimalism in our life could make a huge difference. I saw that the first time when I moved to a house with so many little ornaments, pictures on walls, flowers, and everything. In already small space it felt so crowded. I decided to gradualy get rid of unnecesary things... It wasn't hard for the things that was there before and didn't have any sentimental value. But when I came to my things, especialy the ones that were with me for the majority of my life, it was whole another story. Maybe one day I will get to that minimalistic home that I wish. But for now I'm celebrating every small step. :)
