More details
I have too many things! Too many clothes! Too many books! Too much stuff! I need to think about the difference between what I have and want I need to declutter my life so that I can live more simply.

I will pray that everything I put out will be put to a better use by somebody else than it has been by me.

I will also pray before buying anything as to whether I need it or not, and put out an extra item when I do buy something.
