Here's the thing that I think about life - if you manage to get into a space where you don't need that much, where the overhead of your life is not that great and you're pretty happy and relaxed without that much stuff, you are really liberated because you never have to say yes to something because you want another refrigerator or car!
Brit Marling
So at some point you realize that your life is not just going to start one day in the future, that you're living it.

Any man worth his salt loves a feminist. Only men who are afraid of the feminine in themselves are afraid of women.

Is there anything worse than being called the 'It Girl?' By definition, there will be a new one in two weeks.
