I read the theme, eliminate the unnecessary, to my two home-schooled teens and it provoked the most amazing personal discovery for all of us. Home schoolers, by definition, are notorious for taking on too much and living in the midst of the chaos that ensues. My sons and I were able to isolate the 'necessary' and really see what we want do in order to be happy. -Thanks! Great article.

Namely the silverware - why you ask, because they I would not have to spend the time, energy and water on washing the five spoons my husband used in the three hours he's been home from work or the seven that end up on the floor from my kids throwing them at mealtimes. Dang, I end up feeding them with my fingers anyway so why not just have four people wash their hands instead of a sinkful of forks, knives and spoons at 10 pm when I finally get a minute to myself. ; ) What's simple to one is not simple to another.

I just moved and got rid of a good 25% of my personal belongings. Doing any more than that seemed like it would maybe have the opposite of the intended affect. I know it's just "stuff," but I worry that if too much of it disappeared at once, I'd miss it horribly...just losing a quarter of it was easy to get over. Maybe I'll be a bit more bold on the next move. I’m presently in the process of approaching simplicity gradually. I just moved and got rid of a good 25% of my personal belongings.

Confusion is trying to do everything in a little amount of time. Whenever I get confused or flustered, I ask myself, "Is what I'm doing really necessary?" Once I can reach that point, I see simplicity and can live a simple and happy life. Simplicity, to me, is slowing down and doing the major things that make you happy.
