Less is more.

After Aaron and I decided to dive head first into this journey of simplification and downsizing, I found this video of Graham Hill talking about how less stuff CAN lead to more happiness:


Graham Hill founded the eco-blog and vlog TreeHugger.com, to help, as he says, "push sustainability into the mainstream," with a design-forward style and international, wide-ranging team committed to transforming complex issues into everyday concepts. (Bio taken from http://www.ted.com/speakers/graham_hill.html).

I get excited when I see that others are currently living the life Aaron and I want for ourselves and our future family...and they're doing it in MUCH less than 1200 square-feet of space.

No one said it would be easy.


I had 2 choices when I woke up to this MESS this morning:

A) cry
or
B) laugh

I chose to laugh. Although it's hard for me to admit that I DON'T have it all together and my house DOES look like a tornado hit it, I know it's all a part of the process. And it's only going to get worse before it gets better.

No one said this journey would be easy. But I DO know that the mess will most definitely be WORTH IT in the end.

Oh...and has anyone seen my keys? :)

Change.
