Introduction

In many of his stand up shows, the timeless George Carlin talked about the problem we have with piling up our stuff. Born in 1937, he remembered the days when we didn’t had many options and we were still happy. There was Sprite and there was Coke. There was no Vanilla Coke, Coke with Lime, Raspberry Coke, Cherry Coke, Cherry Vanilla Coke, Diet Vanilla Coke, or Diet Coke with Lime, there was just regular Coke. Soon the companies everywhere realized that they can hook us up on all kinds of meaningless, empty, material stuff, so we’ll occupy more and more space around us, just to keep all of our stuff together. Before this starts to sound like a tribute to Carlin, let’s agree that his points will always be valid. Or at least until the human kind wakes up and realizes: it’s all just stuff.

But, let’s make our own point. Most of the things we own, we don’t even pay attention to in our day to day lives. You must keep finding things around your home you see only once a year, and yet you keep finding them every spring cleaning. You clean them up, meditate a bit on the memories they bring back, and put them back in their secret place. Then you forget about them for at least a few months. And it’s not just about the things we

don’t use daily. It’s about the attitude, the desire to own so many things. It’s a vicious circle we draw ourselves, and we keep following the line like our lives depend on it.

The good news is: it’s a curable habit. We want to be around the things that connect us with our past, with the things we’ve done and places we’ve visited. They make our entire life come together and make sense. We want our surroundings to speak of our journey. To tell everyone our story. The truth is: no one is really paying that much attention to your stuff. They may be curious and glance through, if you have fancy or interesting objects lying around, but they are not really getting the whole picture. When you go to their home, you may look around their stuff, but you are not reading the story behind their arrangement. All you see is someone else’s stuff.

So it’s really about the story behind the things we own, which makes them so valuable that we don’t want to let go. And the stories will stay as long as you remember them. Sometimes a story can really be a sad one. If your boyfriend broke up with you and you maxed out your credit card to make yourself feel better, and bought three outfits that cost as much as your rent. That’s not even a story. That’s your goodbye party for a different story. That

party ends when you end up with a lot less money, and more stuff you don’t know where to put. Afterwards, you never feel good about the stuff you bought because they remind you of the ending, so you might buy something new to cheer you up.

And it all goes around in a big, fat circle. The companies are happy; you think you are happy; you have new shiny glasses that are exactly like the ones you already own, but these are your new ones! Remember that when you hit the lights at night and close your eyes, all your stuff disappears. It’s you and your thoughts again. You can’t throw money at them and you can’t dress them up to make them look better. They are the ones that create your story, not your stuff.
