I grew up with my parents getting us lots of gifts for Christmas and birthdays, but now I realize that I don't enjoy that. I much prefer that they don't send us lots of small gifts that I will have to find a 'spot' for in the house. I understand how someone can choose to live a very minimalist life. I'm not there yet, but I'm working my way towards having less stuff.
