I propose a national holiday to be held on June 25th of each year—six months from Christmas—in which we all dedicate a day to see how much of the stuff we already own we can give away to those that have less than we do. Nothing is off limits here: clothes, furniture, cars, computers, televisions, airline miles, money, unused gift cards, bicycles, musical instruments, vacation houses… You are limited only by your creativity and your generosity.
It’s not a time to get rid of your junk that nobody wants. Nor is it a time to buy gifts. It’s a day to free yourself from the syndrome of stuff.
Who’s with me?
This is a great idea. I’m in.
