Episode 3299: Courtney Carver explores the idea of letting go of journals and sentimental items, arguing that the meaning of life isn't in what we save but in how we live. By releasing these physical remnants of the past, we create space for growth, clarity, and a more present-focused life. Carver encourages us to focus on living fully in the present rather than clinging to objects as proof of our existence. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://bemorewithless.com/living/ Quotes to ponder: "The meaning of my life is not in what I save or keep, it’s in how I live." "Instead of proving that you have lived, live. Instead of proving that you have loved, love." "Writing them down helps me feel light. And, it makes room for more creative ideas, more clarity when making decisions and a better understanding of how thoughts and feelings impact my physical and mental health."
