Clear your wardrobe, clear your mind.
It’s always an emotional exercise clearing out your closet. It isn’t just the cloths your are sifting through, but years of memories and stories. Every piece has a tale to tell. Well mine do anyway.
Opening a drawer is like opening a book, a journal of times past. There are times in your life when you feel it is right to get rid of memories and times when it is inconceivable! I feel the time is right. Following the break up with the forbidden one, I had kept a hold of every t-shirt, every sock!! For me it was hanging on to something that was no-longer. Yesterday, I threw it all away, and you know what, it felt exilerating! Granted, it took five years to do it, but now it’s done, and gone I feel good. There is no going back as these memories are now half way across the world and I ‘ll tell you something else, there are going to be some mighty finely dressed beggars on the street. That is probably very un p.c to say but anyway.
Perhaps all this hoarding was conducive to my sick feeling. Could it be that he made me sick??
The actual point of the point that I am trying to make is that de-cluttering ones wardrobe is actively metaphoric to clearing one’s mind and whilst doing so, you may even come across some real gems. I found a fabulous Missoni top that I have been searching for for almost 2 years!!
When I begun this writing, the thought process and flow was there but as it has gone on, it seems to have dissipated. Obviously the mind is not as de-cluttered as I had hoped it would be.
In conclusion, the more you have, the more confusion about what to wear becomes an issue, and then when you have those “special days” well that’s just a catalyst for the OCD!!
