¿Esto suena natural? I’m Christian and I studied the Bible since I was a kid, but I also study “Zen.” I live in a 60 years old Japanese house, and I don’t own many things. Have you ever heard of a word Danshari? Danshari means not buying unnecessary things, and throwing away things you don't need. I only have a few clothes and they are only black or white. They don’t have any colors, so I don’t really have to worry and spend time to think what to wear. I gave my refrigerator to people this summer. I used to think having a refrigerator, a phone, an air conditioner, a microwave...daily necessaries are necessary. I was wrong.
A monk came to my house during the summer and asked me if I really need all stuff I keep in my house? It turns out, I can live without most of them. If I don’t own many stuff, I can keep my place clean, I don’t get to distrust by things. I can also say the same things about people. According to the monk, if you don’t pretend to be someone else and try to be yourself, the right people would stay with you and other people would leave. I like the idea.

@Lalakoi I see! In that case, I think the word you were looking for was 'distracted'.
→ "If I don't own many things, I can keep my place clean and won't get too distracted". :)
