The Ten Most Important Things

I recently met with a good friend of mine who, through the course of his life, has relocated to a few different countries. On the subject of moving back into my house, he asked me to name the ten most important things that I had in storage. In fact, after bikes, it was difficult to name ten things, let alone the ten most important things.

Perhaps that explains why it's been more than one month since I received the keys to my house and I'm still surrounded by unopened boxes. Sure, it's partly because Housebrand is still not finished working. But, frankly, it's also because I'm having trouble figuring out why I need most of this stuff. For the past 16 months, I have lived out of a suitcase. Three continents, 27 countries, and pretty much everything material that I needed fit into couple of suitcases.

I'm not saying that there are not ten things that are important to me. I'm just not sure that they all fit into storage boxes.
