"Life will become more pleasant and comfortable if we get rid of some of the abundance."

One interesting tidbit I can't stop thinking about: Making a throw-away box. It's the box of things that are only interesting to you, like old love letters and mementos. Label it "throw away" and save your loved ones the time they'd have spent going through it and deciding if anything is worth their while. Also: Contain it to one box.

I'll be going through my three memory boxes soon and squishing it down to just one.
