One of the great things about having no fixed address is that I'm not encumbered with stuff. No CDs, no books, no piles of unread magazines. Not having stuff is quite liberating. It gives you freedom.
On the flip-side, there are those that have too much stuff. They are surrounded by it and it begins to define who they are. "I'm a failure unless I have the biggest house, fastest car, loudest stereo."
And then there are those who are completely and utterly controlled by their stuff. Possessed is a documentary that takes you inside the world of people who hoard. It's fascinating and sad.
