I think we all reach a point where it’s time to let go of the baggage of the past and start over.  I’m there.

I’ve been carrying around too many bags of unwanted items.   I’m not talking just about my physical inventory either.   Although that has reached beyond what is sane going way over 24k.   Yes yes I know, a third of it is fish but that is for another story.   I’m talking about all those things you accumulate as you walk thru this world.   The physical and the mental.  Lets take a look at the physical…  If you don’t want it anymore/don’t like it anymore do you box it up with everything else you don’t want and put it in a corner?   Or do you do the ultimate in cleaning and *gasps* PURGE.   I’ve got some items that I just can’t bring myself to purge.   No idea why.   I don’t like them, won’t wear/use them.   Can’t give them away or sell them.   So, I should just hit *purge*.   Why haven’t I?  Purging is sooooo…. FINAL.  That’s why.

Which really brings me to the main focus of this post.  We’ve all been there.  Holding on to something that no longer suits us.   Whether it’s a piece of clothing or furniture that was super expensive and your loathe to just trash it or it’s the relationship you’ve had with someone that’s become stale but is just sooo comfortable.  That sofa or skirt isn’t hurting anyone just sitting in your inventory really.   Huge inventories do upset the asset servers but for the most part, they can just sit in inventory not bothering anybody.

The relationship though… what happens when it ends?  Rarely do they end pleasantly, someone usually gets hurt.   How do you shed that baggage?  Carrying it is a burden and can make you bitter and mean, closed off from everyone.   Who wants to hang around a bitter person?  I certainly don’t.   So, it’s time to shed the baggage of the past and let it go.   Move on.  Box it all up and throw it on the bonfire!   I started doing just that this weekend.  I redid my profile and pics page.   It’s not finished but it’s a good start at wiping the slate clean.  

New week… new start…

Anyone wanna go fishin?  *wink

LOL
