Listening to Wayne Dyer talking to Oprah on her Spirit Channel podcast about telling his secretary to get rid of all his possessions got me to thinking.

He lives on an island, has a great house, loads of money, no fear about debt, bills, health care, was getting rid of all his possessions, including his shoes, and he is now lecturing barefoot.

Or did he get rid of his houses?

But I think it would be easier to be without possessions if you had the safety net of wealth and shelter.

Image just being with only the clothes you're wearing. When you wash your clothes you are nude. No place for books, just what you carry to read. No car. Cause I can't stand to drive barefoot.

Dr. Wayne Dyer said that if you were to compare the population of the Earth to a village of 100 people and apply the same statistics you would see that 6 of the people (all from the United States) have 59% of all the wealth of the world and that only 1 person would own a computer. If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head, and a place to sleep, you are better off than 75% of the world’s population.

But does that make you happy?

I've narrowed my clutter down quite a bit. There's still things in boxes that never get out of the box because Out of Sight Out of Mind... Maybe those are next. Those Family Photos. Those gifts from friends. Those childhood dreams.

Am I happier with less?

Is Less More?

I can't be without my PowerBook, my iPod, my cameras, books... My dreams.

Ahh, but Those Dreams weigh nothing, but heavy on the soul.
