What would you do if you had to use—let alone actually enjoy—everything you own?

Truth be told, most of us will never live long enough to accomplish such an overwhelming requirement. Instead, we pack it, stack it, and pile it away—even pay rent to store it. Then we keep right on accumulating, acquiring, and attaining even more. More doesn’t add to our joy the way we thought it would. More stuff dilutes the quality of our lives.
