Here we are at day 7 and today I got rid of 7 CDs. I have a pretty large collection of music CDs, a lot that I have kept since high school. Some of these I definitely want to keep as I still listen to these bands on road trips and when I share music with friends, but many of them I haven't popped in a CD player for years. I just keep them around for show, filling up space, filling in the void of emptiness. Well, one of the things I've learned through minimalism is to welcome the emptiness. I can enjoy a quiet room now without the need to fill it up with stuff. Now, when it comes to music, I just keep the music around that I really want to listen to, and get rid of the extraneous stuff.
