Stuff

Stuff.

It's everywhere. Under the bed. In the closet, the basement, and attic and garage.

So much stuff.

Stuff we don't need, haven't used, never wore, or, even washed.

New stuff with tags on yet.

Americans like stuff, don't we?

Piles of stuff everywhere. On the desk and in the drawers.

The only way out of this stuff is to give it away, take it to the St. Vincent De Paul Society, throw it out. Or, give it to a neighbor, or the needy.

Less stuff is healthier. And, a spirituality of subtraction is stylish, let alone adds to one's wellness.

We're unburdened by less. We are less worried when we get rid of some of the stuff. A piece.
A box full. A truck load of the stuff.

Letting go of this stuff will make us better human beings.

Focus and aim will have clarity, then, with less stuff that clutters the bedroom, the dining room, and the basement.

We still hoard tons of stuff in America, land of the free and home of the brave. Too much stuff.

We better talk to the shrink about this one, or, the pastor, rabbi or imam preferably, among other spiritual leaders. Forget more stuff, however, like the medications the psychiatrist may want to prescribe. Who needs another bottle on the counter?

More stuff adds to a people stressed.

I got to get rid of this stuff.

Now.
