Travel light a friend once said to me, <br />'Yeah right' i thought with my big screen TV, <br />but over the years I've changed my view, <br />now i know there are very few things truly essential to you. <br /> <br />Each move I disposed of more sentimental tat, <br />it became easier as i realised, don't need this, don't need that. <br />Then one summer's day i was forced from my home, <br />loads more had to go, into storage went some, <br />Now i live in a hostel with limited bits, <br />eight months on, the stored, do i need it? <br /> <br />With every possession also comes responsibility, <br />burglars shot to save a five pound DVD, <br />so now I'm working my way to cut off the slack, <br />i want to end up with just a rucksack, <br />then I'll have freedom, true freedom to roam, <br />wherever i lay, that'll be my home.<br /><br />Nomad Goggs<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-only-true-freedom-is-freedom-from-the-heart-s-desires/
