Possessions can help you or hurt you. It depends upon how you use them. You should only ask for what you need. More is not better. Only use what you need and only use it when you need it.
Modern technology can be a great tool.
However, it can also eat up lots of time and ruin your peace of mind. You must control it, and not let it control you. Be like Eliezer. Rule your things. Do not let them rule you.
