This month is almost over; the strong windy days preparing for a new season coming in, cleaning out what was left of winter….
Last Sunday I took everything out of my closet and draped it across my bed, floor, dressers, whatever space there was that was available. Who would have thought I could cram so much stuff in one small room. I went through each item; packing away winter, discarding the worn and no longer useable, and putting into a bag to be given away-the still good but no longer works on me. The last one wasn’t so easy. I like to hold onto things, especially the old time favorites. But I’ve changed, the things that used to be me are no more, so its time to let go and move on. Kind of like in other areas of my life too. Things, TV shows, books, people, habits, ideas, thoughts- that once fit and worked but no longer do….its hard to let go of but when I do, I feel good- free, a sense of lightness, and excited about the possibility of the new.
I put back and rearranged my clothes, shoes, purses and accessories creating a new look for my closet, one that I love to go into each day. A small thing, but the colors, the space-arranged in a pleasing way, even paintings placed on walls behind the clothes, that I see as I go through deciding what I’ll wear…all add to a sense of my feel good.
And kind of like the changing tides, my book had a few make overs as well…ah the process of learning how to publish…I’ve heard tell the 3rd time is the charm…ha! we will see…..
happy spring time and new beginnings….. K
