It’s a slow process but I’m working on this. I am so shocked when I unearth something I have not thought of or used in years, but the thought of giving it away brings up all these unresolved feelings!
I was a music major, but I dropped out of school three years ago without looking back. Now I am past the heartache of admitting publicly that I made a serious mistake about where to go with my future. Right? Well selling my instruments has been such a painful thing. I just want to foist them on the nearest person who will take them! Thank goodness for ebay. It allows for such cool detachment while selling your personal posessions. No more do we have to weep openly while people rummage through our beloved things and offer us less than a quarter of what we think it’s worth. Freecycle is even better, you just leave that junk out in front of the garage and sit down for dinner while people drag off that useless piece of your most intimate family memories.
So, thank you freecycle. And thankyou ebay. You are making the de-cluttering of my house so much less lucrative and yet so much less painful.
