    Don't forget to L I K E and S U B S C R I B E. Thank YOU for all your support. Means the world!

    Normalize normal homes! Totally agree and totally respect your decision not to share (for any reason or no reason at all, it's YOUR home!) I just love seeing people actually have huge piles of laundry to fold and normal pantries where you can't even find things 🤪

    • @margaretmatheny
      @margaretmatheny  2 года назад +2

      Hahaha, I feel like I have laundry in almost every video. Thanks for hearing my heart and sharing these words! Glad you're here, Brooke!

    12:00:01 seriously the best statement ever. I feel so sad when i see home tours! And i feel less too!!! I’m glad you spoke on this!!!! It’s a modest apartment and a beautiful home to the family. And i love that you said that.We move to our new home May 1st and its a modest home nothing fancy not even a garage... and a family member helped us get it because its been nearly impossible to do anything for us with the economy.... and i just feel so grateful for it! I don’t care if its not what other people’s standards are I’m just happy i have a home.
    Thank you again so much on speaking on this!! Simple living and being grateful is the most gravitational thing i try to implement each time.

      I can relate to this am and still working through my emotions about it. I still feel jealous when I see large beautiful or new build homes. And shame when I think about inviting people over to my modest home that still needs Major renovations. Thanks for the statement and comments!

    • @margaretmatheny
      @margaretmatheny  2 года назад +3

      Thanks for saying those words, Starra. Ya know they come from a place of feeling less in the past. I know what it feels like and I just wanted others to know that it's okay to feel those things, but they don't need to stay. I'm working on contentment every day-even as a minimalist! We just live in a time where it's normal to show everything you have. But it's definitely a trap. I never want people to feel that way and I know that it's inevitably going to happen as I open up my life on this platform, but I want people to see my heart more than anything. So thanks for these words and for sharing your story too. sending love!

    • @evalindell2757
      @evalindell2757 2 года назад +2

      Well it’s NOT as if the more fancy a home is the happier people are living in it! People that are content and strive after other values are happier with their lives than people that put their own value in materialistic things! Happiness comes from within yourself and your relationships, from what you decide to value as important and what you choose to compare your life with & strive after 🙏❤️

    I find it so refreshing that you live in an apartment and not in a huge house. I’ve never lived in a house, I don’t find it “aspirational”, I love our small space in a great location, which is easy to maintain. Makes me relate to you even more! x

    • @margaretmatheny

    Couldn't love this and you more! Life is a struggle *most of the time* and moving is completely draining! Hugs! When downsizing my whole life, my heart was the first thing that was set straight and have never found more contentment and gratitude for what we chose to have now (which mind you is humble, but just what we need!)

    I agree with your statements in looking into the homes of others and feel like your missing out. I do like inspiration tho. So I try to keep that perspective vs lacking. I also love a good soak. I love minimalism so much. We live in south Florida and enjoy the 1400 sq ft for 4 people. I’m not into cleaning all day. We are home nearly 24/7. As hubs works from home. And we homeschool. So it can get less tidy quickly so my goal is to constantly vacuum snd keep things put away and wiped down. I do deep cleaning once a month which is hitting dust on curtains snd cabinets and fridge clean out with organized closets and pantry. If I can keep that in rotation it makes life so much easier for me. I can’t stand clutter!! Drives me nuts! So I must do the necessary always.

    A really good thing to note is that if you buy items secondhand, the chemicals have already been washed away (and it's so so much better for the environment and your wallet). Everything from stores like Target is full of chemicals from manufacturing, which is awful for everyone.

    • @margaretmatheny
      @margaretmatheny  2 года назад +1

      Yes, agree! Target is not my favorite place to shop but for these little necessities, it's where I go. I'll be thrifting and secondhand shopping here soon. Maybe I'll film it! Thanks for these words of wisdom.
