Taking Space/Making Space
Neutral belongings and activities take up space in your life to the exclusion of meaningful things, so Daniel and I put together a great big barn sale this weekend.
The intent was to sell everything we don't like or don't need.
Some things I couldn't help keeping, like our trash can that is an awkward size in which bags don't fit! Some things I couldn't resist saving, like slivers of broken mirror I want to cover something in.
We got rained out a little. Not everything sold, and some things will be going on Craig's list. Absence sometimes makes chaos, like how the absence of dressers are now making our wardrobes chaotic.
When I get everything back in order will I feel relieved? Clean? New? Will I sense the possibilities?
