Last night I read this entry in [livejournal.com profile] folkmew's journal: http://www.livejournal.com/users/folkmew/156884.html

In it she asks "what have you learned this year?"

Lying in bed this early morning, I realized what the most important thing I learned in the last few months was. But I don't feel like I can quite claim to have learned it. Yet. More kind of learned of it. I am still figuring out its implications.

It is: Hoarding isn't helpful.

Have you ever heard one of those stories about some poor depression-era soul who died and it was revealed that she (it seems mostly to be women who these stories get spread about) had dozens of pairs of underwear, or shirts, or sets of pajamas, or socks, or whatever, still in their original wrapping, sitting in her cupboard or closet, obviously having been there for *years*?
My hoard of stuff, and extra body weight as a manifestation of hoarding. )
