You can't have it all- where would you put it?
THINGS don't bring happiness or fill voids. Especially emotional ones. (Special attention to all of you TAURUSES!) If one is a "surface-abusers" and can't have any little space wide-open or empty, one has much bigger problems that need to be resolved.
One must also ask why does one need chaos, clutter, confusion and piles of crap all over to be happy? It there something wrong with being neat and clean and sparsely furnished (but plush) and organized begin ultimately aesthetically pleasing?
I am always amazed that there are some who can't function when things are "too perfect" It really literally makes them nervous and jittery. I think much of the time we tend to (want to) replicate the conditions under which we were raised, but hey, that's just my silly opinion.
The concept of "ECONOMY" is a Greek one. OIKOS- house & NOMOS- rules, law, order. It is the cultural idea is that a house/place/system can't be a free-for-all (read: pig-sty)and that there are rules and procedures to make it a livable home.
After all "LIVING WELL IS THE BEST REVENGE!"
"IDIOT" by the way comes from "IDIOTIS" meaning (in the proper sense of the word) one who does whatever he himself wants whenever he wants without any regard for the mass consensus, socially acceptable way or what is good for the many. Basically it meas someone who doesn't know when to back-off and do what is expected/proper.
Sometimes it is best to leave one's very base and animalistic instincts (eat, sleep sh--, fu--, get high, gather & hoard, exact revenge, for something more evolved and spiritual. But just sometimes!
