My Toxic Trait: Can I Fit Just One More Plant?

Okay, so we all have our little quirks, right? Mine is this toxic trait of always thinking I can fit just one more plant in that corner or grab another canvas and some more art supplies, even though my apartment is already packed to the brim. I know I have more than enough, but there’s just something about bringing home a new plant or art addition that gets me excited!

Sometimes, I ponder ways to tackle this problem. Maybe I should rearrange things or even let go of some items, but then I pause. All these plants and art supplies bring me so much joy! Isn’t happiness what we all want?

But here’s the kicker: while I love the happiness these little treasures bring me, it often leads to my space feeling cluttered. I find myself questioning whether my joy is worth the cramped feeling in my apartment. Am I creating a cozy environment that inspires me, or am I just making a mess?

As I dive into this journey, I know I need to find a balance between my passions and my living space. I’m considering setting some limits, such as designating specific spots for my plants and art or perhaps trying a ‘one in, one out’ rule. With some adjustments, I can enjoy what I love without feeling overwhelmed.

Ultimately, I want to create a space that reflects who I am while keeping it peaceful and fun. Figuring out how to blend happiness with a little less clutter is definitely a challenge, but I’m all in!
