The MSN story, Could you live with just 100 things?, was the first I had heard about the 100 Things Challenge.
The gist is that consumerism is America’s worst habit and the goal is to prove that by paring down your belongings to just 100 things, you can live a fuller life without an abundance of “stuff.”
If each individual possession counts towards the “100 things,” then count me out. I need a toothbrush, mascara, black shoes and brown shoes. If grouping is allowed, say toiletries, clothes, and cooking utensils, then I’m not sure I even own 100 things to begin with.
Before we moved form Chicago to Texas, I did some major purging. If it cost more to move it then it was worth, it was donated, recycled, or thrown away. We’re now down to necessities and I’d like to keep it that way.
So, could you do it?
