Lightening the Load


I spent most of today going through our home files and pitching things that were no longer relevant. As I hauled bag after bag of old papers to the trash I felt lighter each time. I try not to keep anything too long, but after going through my files today, I realized that I had not thinned things out since 2007.

As I looked at some of the papers, I knew I did not want these in my house any longer. Letters, receipts, articles - so much stuff - so irrelevant today. And as I lightened the load of our file cabinet I thought about how easy it will be to get this cabinet down the stairs when we move toward the mountains.

Joy is letting go of the old to welcome in the new!

Here's to the Ride!
