I have enough crap.

My parents recently moved from Atlanta to Utah.  In the process they rented some storage units in Provo to avoid having to house hunt with all of their stuff hitched to a truck behind them.  I went to this storage unit the other day to grab some of my winter sweaters and I was amazed by the immensity of crap that people bother and even pay to store.  I think that the majority of society needs to learn how to say, "I have enough crap."  People these days are obsessed with getting the biggest and the best only to pay to keep it in a storage unit when the newer model comes out.  Did you know that the storage unit industry makes more money than the entertainment business as a whole?  It's kind of disgusting when you think about it.  I don't think that personal satisfaction can come until a person comes to terms with himself and truly realizes that he more is not always better, sometimes it's just more.  There is a renewed feeling of freedom and jubilee when you realize that you already have everything you need to be happy. Ditch the storage units and start living.
