In a time when our planet desperately needs to reverse the dominant goal of growth for growth's sake, this wisdom about our culture of accumulation at the micro-level is more important than ever. Coming to find that losing your life's work hasn't really been so devastating after all is surely as strong a reason as one can find to stop buying or holding on to objects that we are not using. Radical lessons from a column allegedly about buying stuff ;) ! Absolutely love the art this week, too.

I truly love reading (discovering) your thoughts-in-progress. From “we define ourselves with the objects we acquire” to “we are not defined by our objects” -- thanks for sharing 🙏⚡️✌️
