I feel kind of uncomfortable at times, and almost kinda guilty. And I don't mean guilty in the sense that I'm misusing Qs or clearing off shelves...nothing like that. I guess I kinda just feel bad that I have so much stuff, even though I give a lot of it away. We grew up poor and didn't have much, so having excess now is strangely uncomfortable.
I kind of agree with you. When I was younger and in college I was flat broke. I'm talking no money at all. So now it does feel a little strange to be able to have 10 boxes of tampons, when before I would just use toilet paper. Gross I know. But yes, I know what you mean, but just be thankful you are in a position to have things for yourself and to help out others.
