Less = More?

Looking for inspiration for your weekend projects?  Check out this TED talk on how less may actually be more.  This is definitely not a new concept, but this video provides a novel way of looking at the question of stuff.

We know that the best way to reduce our impact on the environment is to consume less of everything - energy, food, material goods.  It definitely saves money and time, and as suggested by the video, probably gives us more freedom and happiness then we might otherwise experience.

If you are inspired to edit your stuff, be sure to take the time to find a good home for anything that is still usable.  In economic times like these, there are plenty of our friends and neighbors who can use a little help.  Let's see - save money, save time, help others, and help the planet - sounds like a no-brainer!
