Day 33 - The Bare Essentials

I pulled everything out of my closets. I sprawled everything I own all over the floor of my room. I stood there looking at them. Books. Videos. Magazines. Comic books. Obsolete computer hardware. Climbing gear. Clothes. Camera gear. Shoes. Old letters from old boyfriends. More books. Unpaid bills. More clothes.

Most of this shit, I haven’t touched in years. I only see them when I pack up to move. Then I move. Then I put them somewhere in a dark closet and then never look at them again till the next time I move.

I ask myself. Why am I keeping them? Am I keeping them because they serve as a tie to past memories. Or are they really anchors slowing me down, hindering me from moving, clear-eyed into the future?
