I’ve been at it since 5am, shredding pounds of paper as I purge old files. It began with me shopping for another file cart, then it occurred to me, this is how clutter starts and clutter can suffocate the life out of you. I realized if I purged files, I could use the file cart I have now. I shredded 2 cartsful. My life is an ever widening realization of what I do and do not have to hold on to. It’s getting easier to let go.
