The Empty Cart

Minimalism is a Daily Practice

I recently started down this journey. Like most eager to-be minimalist, I started with my closet.

These were things that I had complete control over. My wife, my 3 kids, and my 2 dogs could care less about my dad wardrobe. I felt it was a safe place to begin the journey.

The experience was liberating. I had been holding on to closed in tubs for over a decade. But this time, I let them all go.

Every. Single. Thing.

Too small? Gone.

Too many holes? I wish you luck!

It was so great, my wife even went through her own clothes.

But the next day something unexpected happened.

I went to my closet and it was full again.
