I am American, a privileged one. I am in a constant battle with an onslaught of products. I try to keep the junk that fills my drawers, my closets and my car from taking over my space.
I want to give it away, but there is little value in my junk and there is not a market for it. So I hold on to my super balls, my golf gloves, my pens and pencils, and my art.
I feel bad when I look at it, I am one of the few that has this problem. My mind turns to the less fortunate in Africa, Indonesia, in Mexico.
I want to send my life to them. But the shipping would be too expensive.
