The simplicity/minimalism niche is among the most friendly, encouraging, and helpful communities you will ever find. There is a genuine understanding that any promotion of simplicity is good for society—and there is little concern about who gets the credit for it.
It is a pleasure to be part of such a wonderful group of people. And I enjoy every opportunity to promote writing that encourages people to live more by owning less. So fix yourself a nice warm cup of coffee or tea. Find a quiet moment this weekend. And enjoy some encouraging words about finding more simplicity in your life today.

Bill Watterson’s piece has really been making the rounds today. Love it!
I love comics, and Bill Waterson’s comic was amazing! Allison Vesterfelt’s blog also got me thinking about why it’s easier to pack lightly for vacation than to clear out “stuff” from my home.
So grateful for a great weekend ritual.
Thanks for sharing this Joshua. I loved the Time article, especially since I will be a father soon. It was great input to consider as I embark on the journey to parenthood in a digital age. Love the work you are doing here Joshua.
Thank you for sharing the Bill Waterson piece. I grew up reading Calvin and Hobbes, and it is even more special that the man behind the comic has such excellent values. Hope you have an excellent holiday weekend! ^^
