Clearing out the clutter

Today has been another session of clearing out the clutter,
I have spent a few hours today going under the beds in the
back of the cupboards, through boxes and book cases.
And I have a few bins full of stuff that’s either broken or useless
I have repositioned some items from the rooms in to the
basement out the way,
I have a mound of items to just be given to charity and I have
a list of items being sold on eBay.
Why do we keep all these items lying around with no use in
our homes and personal spaces? Some of junk I’m selling and giving to charity
is always getting in the way or taking up space in my cupboards, but it’s all
been there for months and years.
It feels good to just have a de-clutter, makes you appreciate
the things you keep, why hold on to an item with no use when it can be given to
someone who may benefit from it.
Old clothing that isn’t worn or doesn’t fit, books that I have
read, books on topics which I could easily find the information online. DVD’s
and music that can just be stored on a hard drive.
All these objects taking up their own bit of space, if I want
to move I have to move them all with me, so I don’t need them anymore.
Items loose value as time goes on , when I upgraded my
digital camera , I should have sold my old one straight away now 4 years later
the old camera which has been in my desk draw all this time is worth nothing on
eBay.
Be quick at clearing clutter, when the item is in the bin it
no longer has any control over you.
Some things can be sold , but for the amount of time and
effort and small amount of money you receive in return , isn’t it better to
just give it all away in one trip.
With kindles and pdf books, why keep all the paper copy’s.
So just put on some music and dig out your cupboards, so
what you find.
