Food for thought....Pipe in on SIMPLE LIVING!

To know me is to know I LOVE a deal...but lately I am bored with it. I think I am just bored with couponing, shopping, and buying stuff. My kids play with my make up brushes way more than the Barbies (etc.). So, I have a food for thought today on simple living and a quote for you today.

"Living in a way that is outwardly
simple and inwardly rich."
— Duane Elgin, author

Duane also said, "What Is Simple Living? Simple living — aka voluntary simplicity — has just about as many definitions as there are individuals who practice it. Simple living is not about living in poverty or self-inflicted deprivation. Rather, it is about living an examined life — one in which you have determined what is important, or "enough," for you, discarding the rest."

My mind has been on simplifying my personal life lately. I just feel cluttered with stuff in our house lately-it all started with the fall clothes rotation & toys. AHHH too many kid clothes from relatives. So, I made a hefty donation this past weekend to a rescue mission. I am just NOT into shopping or bringing more stuff into my life....I might not even go on Black Friday shopping. How about you, can you relate? Share!
