[Day 1768].
When tidying up.
It is also the best time to talk to matter.
I took this little conch shell home and put it on my desk, always reminding me of the ideal of living a simple life, encouraging me to have the courage to continue these experiences by the sea, reminding me of how little I really depend on to survive, when I want to buy a new item for myself, when I am contrary to the essence of simple and simple life, I can remind myself: Is this necessary?
It's not enough to simplify the external life, because that's only the external after all, but I can start with the external change. The appearance of the shell and the cloak of my life are only external, and we cannot find the answer to the question from these appearances, and the final answer must be to look inward in our own hearts. For this, I have always been aware of this, although the external things are not the final answer, but he can still find the inner clues for us, everyone is free, just like the hermit crab has the freedom to choose the shell.
How to choose life? The answers at each stage are different, the choices made are different, and I see reflections on life in other people's books, triggering my own reflections on my own life.
Sometimes there is a kind of idealism, that is, the hope to quickly reach the life state of others that you yearn for, and everyone has a yearning for beauty, but is it suitable for you?
Blindly imitate without thinking, and in the end it will not be possible.
Isn't it bad to not be able to do it? If so, it is another kind of paranoid narrow-mindedness - good and bad are inappropriate words, do not fall into dichotomies.
Today, I opened all the cabinets in the kitchen again, while recording the category of items, size, while tidying, when I opened it yesterday, I saw a dazzling array of items, I only felt dizzy, and I could only helplessly accept my own many items, and divide them into categories.
By the way, these items are categorized one by one with the storage area of the new home, and if you find that the space in the new home is not enough to store these items, you need to organize them more carefully.
More and less items, in the current life, to measure the placement, in the heart can not give up at the moment, reconcile with yourself, and life, is the best choice, how to balance between the "more" and the "refreshing" space, reduce the burden brought by the items.
