Life in a suitcase


How would it feel living inside a box? I mean, only carrying a bare minimum to live your life... fit everything that you need in a suitcase... and walk around carrying your suitcase... take your life with you wherever you go...

I am not interested in accumulating unnecessary belongings. I sometimes think I would consider myself successful if I can fit my life in a suitcase. It really bothers me to own a lot of things and having to carry them with me when I move places. Everything a person really needs to survive is food, clothes, a place to live and a small company of good people. If I can fit food, clothes and few other things in a suitcase, I could consider myself lucky...

The caveman within me

Everyday we conform to things around us such as etiquettes, social norms and laws. These have become quite essential for functioning in a modern society. I feel the downside is, they have made our lives more complicated and artificial. It seems like we have to think twice before speaking with someone. We are called uncivilised if we do not know the table manners. There are ways to dress-up while attending job interviews and to present yourself. You have to pretend to be confident even when you are not.

I am not trying to despise all this. I wish I could but this is part of our time. We just have to accept it or at least try to lower the impact of it.
