I’m returning to one of my favorite themes with the classic comic strip above, from about a decade ago. In case you’ve wondered, yes, I do have too much stuff. Why do you think I keep returning to the theme? One of these days, I’m going to get rid of a lot of it. Speaking for myself here, I think it might not be a bad idea to take the same approach with stuff in general that I’m trying to take with my diet. Eat mostly good food, not much junk. Why not buy mostly good stuff that will do me some good and less junk that I don’t need? Maybe together we could start a “whole stuff” movement.
