Lightening your life---when the panic sets in and it will.
Even though I have been thinking about donating the majority
of my possessions for quite some time and looking forward to the euphoria when
I load my car (still hoping it all fits) with what I have deemed as important
and needed in my life---I am now panicked with some anxiety mixed in.
I have scheduled another pick-up, with the charitable
organization I have been donating to, so I can get a better idea of what is
left.(I am 1 week out to the final pick-up)
I was also hoping it would let me feel free-er but I am now in panic
mode. My home office is going, this
time, (desk, shelves, file cabinet….) and more than half my closet and some
furniture pieces I have had all my life or most of it (I lovingly wrapped them
in blankets and twine).
Since most of this has been packed up for at least a few
weeks to over a month—I know it is right to donate them but this doubt is a
surprise to me. I just want you to know
it is OK to feel this way too and to give you ‘addaboys’ for doing it.
If it isn’t serving you and it is taking time
to care for it and taking up space---you made the right decision to let it go
to a place where it can be used and service someone else.
