Many people, myself included have too much crap. We consume, we buy more. In a society where we'll buy a product because it comes with more you have to wonder, is retail therapy really an issue or are we all just hooked on having the next best thing?
I guess I'll cut a long story short. What do you really need?
Now, we all know food and water are a necessity. But what do you need that isn't so important to your life. Stuff that you could give up, but at the same time it's one of those things you couldn't live without.
Is it your TV? Internet? Car?
I thought about this and realised that apart from a few pieces of clothing and some guitar strings, which is what my blogger friend above said in a comment. I don't really need much else.
So, what do you really need if you were to live on a deserted island, or any favourite remote part of the world? A deck of cards? A drum? A book?
