I would love to hear what some people think are necessities these days per the average American. Had a friend who had done mission work over seas for five years and came home and was literally stressed out by everything they saw while visiting relatives. To much noise and people talking on cell phones when IN the same house. They were happy to go back to their mission work which was hard, but less stressful simply because they don't have all the 'stuff' intruding on their lives.

Hi everyone,
I would love to hear suggestions and tips from those who live without things our culture considers "essentials"! I know people are living without electricity, without cars, certain technology and without many other things- I'd love to know your tips and ideas! :) We are in the process of transition and I love to learn from others successes and mistakes! :)
We have a garden, some goats (both meat and milk), rabbits (to breed for meat), chickens (meat and layers), and are trying to move to sustainability with those things...
I'd love to cut down our "stuff" but am unsure what to eliminate- I have the "I might be able to use this later" but and while I got through periods of throwing things out- I'd love suggestions on what items are actually helpful and valuable versus just keeping junk... :)
Any suggestions that have worked for you or others would be appreciated!
Chara
