Have I not been telling my contemporaries about simplifying our lives at our age? Yet, I am guilty of "hoarding" myself.
Although I have a two-bedroom apartment, with two fairly good-sized closets, and a small closet in the hallway to boot. I have enough "stuff" to fill all three closets. And the cabinets . . .
It is time to do something about all the "stuff" sitting there.
Even if I live to be a hundred-and-ten, do I really, really need some of the "stuff"?
I have clothing that are several decades old and not been worn for more than a decade or so; things that I bought years ago that I thought I needed; art supplies to last me for another lifetime; table linens that have not seen the daylight since I moved here . . .
Time to declutter, to simplify, and to let go.
And yet, I am making "stuff" everyday. I paint, I make "things" . . .
What to do? What to do?
I finally decided to brace myself and go through my "things".
Didn't I advice others to -
Give it away,
Throw it out.
or, Sell it.
So I should take my own advice.
