Day 30 ~ Letting Go

I used to be quite a pack rat ~ I would keep everything 

sentimental factor does that to a person.

Also it depended on who gave it to me 

did not want to hurt anyone’s feelings by giving something away that you absolutely hate.  

A couple of things got broken accidently on purpose 

during a move a few years back ~ less guilt that way.  

Then came along the show Clean Sweep with Peter Walsh on TLC.  

I would sit and watch it and something clicked….. 

it’s not the item that holds the memory ~ the heart does.  

Talk about an Oprah aha moment ~ it was a push that was needed.  

I no longer hold onto things because of who gave them to me.  

I have purged and purged items from our home.  

I go through my closet at the change of every season.  

So letting go of the stuff ~ I am getting there.  

I still have a few things that I just cannot part with yet but there is still time.  

Now if I can just get my dear husband to clean out his closet!
