Quotes to ponder:

"Too many times, I’d done this exact thing: get rid of all the things I no longer thought I needed, and then, right on its heels, I’d buy replacements for half the things I’d donated."

"If I have the privilege and discernment to get rid of things, I have exactly what it takes to do it."
