I am also struggling with myself all the time, but I am very optimistic in this sense. People are realizing more and more that happiness is freedom, and freedom is to be able to “travel light”, not possessing a lot of things, because at the end of the day, the things start to possess you.

I don’t think I really made that decision as I would like to say, it came quite naturally to me. All my possession are in a way replaceable except for maybe a handful of memorabilia which my friends and family have given me.

One day I realized that if I buy a castle, I cannot think about anything but taking care of it. Not that I can afford a Castle now but hey who knows.

I would rather buy a small farmhouse, so to keep it is very easy, and I have time to go to the mountains, to walk, do spend my life in the way that I would like. In short: the less you have to keep, the more you have in freedom. And one of the lessons nature teaches you is exactly that: keep your contradictions, as summer is the opposite of winter.
