#205 Travel light

In many circumstances, speed is not only of the essence, it is critical. It’s only superior being is timing.

As I move my belongings from one home to another I am reminded of this fact. My possessions are few outside of a bed, a tv, a bookshelf along with clothing and a few miscellaneous items (BJJ medals, guns, ammo, etc).

Too often we hold on to that which is not necessary to the degree that we miss the ease that accompanies minimalism. My travels only reinforce this fact as I carefully pack a uniform and a few days clothes/essentials, allowing me to zip through airports and get to my destination in a timely fashion.

Despite our advances as a human race, some things will never change. Such as the simple beauty of the fact that “less really is more”.
