Do you believe in minimalism?

Hey…
I hope all of you are doing well….!
It was a bad evening last night as all of the cold things that I ate/drank over the past few weeks came up on me,
all of them at the same time;
My tonsils swelled up and it was difficult to take a bite of food even drink water;
And I was sure for a fact that I’d pass out last night if I didn’t have pain meds and some homeopathic medicine which work slowly and steadily,
but they do work…!
I drank a cup of hot water and a hot coffee this morning and even the soft biscuits were hard to digest,
You won’t believe even drinking normal water was a pain last night as even a single gulp caused me so much pain that it was impossible to bear;
So I took a painkiller and a cold medicine that I had,
and,
around 1 I fell asleep after locking all of the gates…!
As I’m taking this morning session got my neck pain and it will be over in a span of a few days;
I’ll have more time out of this regular schedule of mine;
but,
that does come with a problem of how to utilise it to the fullest…!
As I’m completing this at 10:28 at night while I recover from the stress that this day brought upon me,
while I’m enjoying some old music which I think you might not be aware of-
It’s Panjabi and by a famous producer called Manni Sandhu and the singer is Binnie Toor;
I used to listen it way back and it clicked into my mind one day and it has taken its place in my quick picks now…!
Coming back to the prompt
My belief in minimalism…!
To be honest this might be a wrong prompt for me because,
no matter how much I try to be minimal,
there are many aspects that I fail to be minimal…!
First of all I’ve got I’ve got four screens on which I consume the same media that I do on a regular smartphone which I carry two of… 😂
Other than that I have a cluster of cables that I carry on me two of them are type c and two of them are lightening ones;
And I carry two power banks on me even if I use only one of them at any given time;
But;
I use the bigger 20,000 mAh one to charge my devices every other week so it’s life stays on longer;
let’s not forget two wireless chargers, (other than the wireless compatible power banks) that are on the opposite corner of my room and I can put my devices which deliberately have a MagSafe cover even if it makes my device bulky and take away its show;
I had a problem which was I had never used an apple device until 2025;
that was the year I got one,
a iPhone 13 which helps me in uploading all of this work…!
I try to be minimal but,
I think it takes a lot of courage and dedication to be a minimalist and if I cannot find something in a place where kept it,
I have a breakdown and within moments of it i try to be calm and composed and find it a few feet left or right not remembering if i moved it or was it someone else…!
Khair…
Minimal mindset might be far away from me,
but,
being in a space where i have essentials that i need in my reach it’s a better option for me right now…!
Do let me know if you have this problem or not…!
or all of you are pros at being minimal…!
Goodnight from this side of the world to yours…!
Cheers 🥂
