i have spent literally all weekend since getting back cleaning my apt. every single closet i own has been reorganized, a bunch of stuff i don't use regularly i packed away and moved into my basement storage, i filled a whole bag of clothes to donate to goodwill/migrant shelters/local thrift. i know minimalism isn't, like, "cool" anymore but man, it feels insanely good to be starting a new year fresh and clean and literally physically lighter and less burdened by stuff

in reply to @sperra's post:
yeah!! lovely to hear you've been able to sort through your stuff and give away what you didn't want
also: hey, "minimalism" is just a style. the commodification of a nice set of values. i like how you're sticking to those values even though you know they're not "popular" rn. i think that's really cool!
thanks! haha idk if I'd even really call my values "minimalist" per se, really it's more just a desire to be thoughtful about what I own/use and not keep junk that's just bogging me down (bc I am totally the kind of person that if I exist in a messy space, it becomes reflected by a messy brain). but I totally get what you mean— it's good to be doing it for me and my needs as opposed to whatever's the aesthetic du jour!
