Wastebasket Pride!
Today the wastebasket became a show of my own personal growth; a path I hope to continue down. I threw away my wedding bouquet which I had for all these years displayed in a silver holder; I threw away my wedding cake topper…which I made myself and always loved–you see I’m not very crafty…but inspired by being so happy and in love I completely tabled that fact and plunged ahead with that project only to be thrilled at the turnout! I think I finally learned that I can cling to the memories that I’m so proud of or happy about without the need to keep the clutter or the symbolic excess. So this isn’t about divorce and Lila rebirth, this is really figuring out clutter and excess and a weird inability to discard much and how I hope today’s incidents will help me continue to do more of this in the future! It was so simple to discard those items today. There was no pomp and circumstance. That was it… I just threw them out. And it feels good.
AWESOME!
