Can you live a completely digital life?
Keep it, just in case you:
- want to read it/look at it/remember it.
- can use it for a crafts project.
- need it for an emergency.
Store it until winter.
Store it until summer.
Store it until you need it.
Can you get rid of these tangible “things” (i.e. photo albums, books, school work, etc) that sit in your bedroom, closet, garage, <insert other storage space>?
Can you live a life where if everything were to burn in a fire and all you could run out with was your laptop & hard drive, you wouldn’t be devastated one bit?
I’d like a life with less clutter and tangible stuff — but there’s some kind of attachment to physical objects. Just as looking at photos digitally may evoke a different emotion or response than flipping through a physical album.
Are we conditioned to be attached to physical things?
Or can we truly live a less materialistic lifestyle and attain more freedom?
I want to clear my room except for things that I use on a weekly basis.
I think it will make me happier.
I’m wondering what other peoples lives are like who have done something similar…
