View submission: What misunderstandings have you faced because of minimalism?
That I’m heartless and not sentimental. The opposite is true, I want my most special and meaningful things to have pride of place and be well looked after, not lost amongst other things that have only slight meaning to me.

It's also like... some of us have fewer things to be sentimental about.

I completely understand that! Minimalism doesn’t mean being emotionless. I think it’s more about honoring what’s really special to you, not getting buried under things that don’t hold meaning. It’s about curating a space that reflects your true values.
