Only handle it once. That's what the life coach at the library said tonight is one of the keys to getting rid of clutter. Only handle it once. There's got to be a metaphor for life in there too somewhere beyond the junk drawer, the rubber band ball, and the Tupperware falling out of the cabinet.
Think about it. What would your life be like if you only went out with one bad boy? Or how about if you only bought a scratch-off lottery ticket once? Only procrastinated about the writing the term paper freshman year? Only drank until you threw up on your 21st birthday? Wow. If we only handled the things that held us back over the years once. We would probably all be senators or something now.
But you can't go back. But what I learned tonight I can do is give my old or ill-fitting blue jeans tohttp://www.bluejeansgogreen.org/ and they will be turned into insulation for habitat for humanity homes. If only it were as easy to get rid of a bad boy.
