So, it’s OK to want stuff, to get stuff, to give stuff, to use stuff, and to get rid of stuff. You may not remember all the stuff you had as a kid, but if you are a parent, you are certainly aware how fast stuff gathers around you when kids come into your life! You start to give a bit of stuff away. You want stuff.
