K. always has the most amazing ideas. From recipes for jam to art projects to being a good human. One of the latest I'm going to adopt: I'm not going to buy stuff this year. As she said, this doesn't mean not buying face wash and stuff like that. It just means not buying "stuff." And I tend to buy a lot of stuff. I'm an emotional spender. I shop to make myself feel better, alleviate anxiety, or to lift my mood. But as the Buddha already stated so perfectly: stuff causes suffering. Stop craving stuff, stop suffering.
