Minimalization

I strongly believe that we should all strive to live off of less than what we have. Society has trained us to believe that more and more is better, but do we really need all the crap that we buy. I imagine that only about 1% of the items I own are absolute necessities that I could not do without. Those being:

Food
Shelter
Toothbrush/Toothpaste
Soap
Water
Books
Computer

I had to throw the computer in there, because someday when I do decide to become a minimalist I will need the computer to continue writing this blog… Duh.
