Recently, I found myself clearing out a few things before winter, which had some nice benefits:

-Found a few things I thought I’d lost

-Now we can play a nice game of ping-pong without tripping over stuff

-I was able to share a few things with some needy people

-Got some good exercise taking things out to the trash/recycle

But the main benefit, I find, is I suddenly have a clearer idea of what I want in my life.

Maybe because I stirred up some old activity, or maybe because I cleared out a mess,

I seem to know better what I want. That’s a nice feeling! It’s also a bit scary, because

we all have doubts about our ability to get what we want, and of course the cost and

fallout of these changes. But clarity is a worthwhile thing.

Usually, I am all about emptying the body through better (and less) eating, but today

I simply appreciate simplifying my space, and bringing more enjoyment and openness

to my future. Care for a nice game of ping-pong?
