I Have Always Had A Great Tendency Of A Minimalist

Being a minimalist is something some don't realize they are until they start paying attention to their kind of lifestyle or come to read about minimalist ideas. I can say that I happen to be that type of person. Someone who has always loved to live her life in its simplest form.

My minimalist lifestyle started a long time ago. As far back as I could remember my very existence.
I remember graduating from college and on getting home my sister was asking why my bag was so small. Where are all my clothes and other forms of belongings? And I told her that was all my clothes and belongings. She gave me a kind of look that even after many years is still fresh in my memory.

I know in her mind what she might have been thinking, why can't I keep more clothes or larger bags? Though on that day she did not bother to say it out as she might have felt like repeating herself was becoming like a broken record.

I have always lived simply and classic. And those are the things that make my life so easy and happy.

I never have to buy more clothes than necessary or just to fill my closet's sake, almost all of my clothes are a necessity even when I could afford more and this has been my way of life for as long as my memory could serve me.

I learned to declutter my room from a very young age, as that extra space gives me a heavenly kind of feeling. The same thing applied to my clothing bags and general belongings. As soon as I started feeling like they were choking me. And once I'm done I do feel a kind of great relief and inner peace.

Right from when I was a little girl, my circle of friends has always been at its barest minimum as I love to keep relationships real and deep instead of having plenty of acquaintances.

My phone storage had never been left out, as I do inspect it from time to time so I could do away with applications that I'm not been used frequently. Or use the freeze option on my phone to keep them in inactive mode but I could unfreeze them for use whenever the need arises. The result always enhances my phone's overall performance, speed, and efficiency.

I may not have known the meaning of being a minimalist for more than half of my existence but I have always lived as one. Only a few years ago I came across the word Minimalist and thanks to this very community who always strive to broaden and widen my knowledge of this lifestyle.

This is who I have always been even before I realized it. I have this dream which was inspired by the lifestyle of the likes of Mark Zuckerberg. "That, one day, no matter who I become, I could keep to a habit of wearing one single kind of brand of clothes, plain white design. Only that I haven't just found the right brand yet. Like I said, I love it, simple and classic.'

This is my response to the #kiss blogging ideas week#66 in the minimalist community. The image I used belongs to me.
