days_unfoldingThe first thing that really grabbed me about the Internet was Web cams, way back when. I used to spend hours looking at them. I thought that it was cool that you could "travel" the world from your home. Last night, I was looking at some Web cams, and it occurred to me to see if there was a Web cam from the beach at St. Maarten, where the planes skim the beach. Sure enough, there is, and I have it open. The next arrival is scheduled in a few minutes. I'm a plane-crazy fool.
I've been reading books about minimalism, but they basically say 1) get rid of most of your stuff, and 2) spend less money. They don't get at the change in mindset. One phrase I liked, though, said that in a minimalist lifestyle, you surround yourself by things that you love. I "love" an awful lot though! Well, I have a long way to go before I can even approach minimalism.
