My decision to go raw totally transformed my relationship with material possessions.  It became blatantly evident that my possessions owned me.  So now, when I'm contemplating the possibility of buying or receiving something, I think about the consequences: I'll have to put it away, clean it, dust it, take care of it, organize it, etc...  Is all that really worth the cost???  And so I gradually detach myself from wanting, from desiring, owning less and less creates more and more freedom, the space to just be myself.

An another simplification that is absolutely marvellous is that we sleep outside.  The interior decor that usually necessitates a bed, a bedside table, a wardrobe, odds and ends, in fact a bunch of stuff that needs to be cleaned, put away, dusted no longer exists.  We sleep in what we call the cabana.  The decor of our room changes with the seasons.  The pure air from the river rocks us into a deep and restorative sleep.  The smell of rain or morning dew in the morning infuses us with energy.  A bed and a small bedside table are all we need.
