I guess the message I got from it sort of was that most of us live in boxes that we've built around ourselves that aren't actually there. "Working jobs we hate to buy shit we don't need" was a big one for me. Also "You're not your job. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your f-ing khakis." "First you have to give up. You have to know, not fear, that someday you're going to die." and the Raymond K Hessel thing from the article. You only have a limited amount of time and there's no point wasting it waiting for "someday". There's just a very real current of minimalism and intentionality underneath the absurdity.
