The value of simplicity

Day after day I'm learning to value simplicity. Simplicity as a term, is broad. Everyone would have different ways to define it. There are some who see it as being "plain" or being deprived of luxuries in life.

I see it on a positive note, though.

It is less of things and people in life but these are things and people of quality, from careful selection and is possessing value.

Say, you want to buy a dress but it's expensive. 

Why not save up for it instead of 10 alternative dresses? Believe me you'd only spend more if you choose the latter. Reminder: Only own things that you love and are well made.

Going back, decluttering is necessary in the concept of simplicity.

To me, it is an act being manifested when one is attaining mental clarity or when one is beginning to be more focused and simpler about his or her choices.

In decluttering, I think anyone can start in their room.

You have 10+ bags but you only use one.
You have 10+ dresses but you only wear two.
You have 10+ shoes but you only wear three.
So on and so forth.

Guilty?

Why not give away the ones you don't use? Declutter. Just do it. Trust me, you'd like the feeling afterwards.

It helps you simplify and have less of the unnessentials both literally and figuratively. What's more, it clears the mind. And, it just does. Like a deep-seated excess baggage within you, it just goes away and you're relieved afterwards.

Simplicity is a lifestyle.

Simplicity is part of My Life Design.

Simplicity is Quality.
