I woke up this morning ready to start my day with a little housekeeping and noticed that my upstairs hall closets can use some tidying up. Later when i finally finished I realized how organizing these closets made me feel a sense of relief. Of course I had three piles, a keep pile, a give pile and garbage. Honestly I don’t know how garbage can accumulate so fast from two closets. But the best part was that the bulk of the items was going to be brought to my local value village. Not only am I helping myself but also others.
As I was in the middle of organizing the closet I realized how grateful I am that I have the ability to give back to the community even if its in a small way. Thinking how who ever find one of the items that i donated smalls and purchases it made me feel even more grateful. That even when that person was done with it would re-donate it and the next person will feel so much joy from it. Its as if the joy will live on and on.
So next time your ready to throw away that table lamp maybe donate it, because I'm sure there's someone out there looking for that exact lamp your ready to throw out. Just remember the times it brought you joy and how that happiness can live on in a new family to adore.
Im also grateful that I had the strength to clean those closets in the first place. Having the patients to organize and sift threw what to keep and what not to keep. That's my little spiel of the day I hope you enjoyed my though and I would like to know yours. If you have any comments leave them below.
