I was at a cook out this Saturday. There a woman said a very interesting thing. "I made fried chicken this morning." But that wasn't it. ANOTHER lady said "if something is broken I get rid of it. it goes right in the garbage. Because nothing new can come into your life with a bunch of broken stuff in it."
This is a very helpful bit of theory to someone studying the universe. It makes sense. If you are bogged down hoarding a bunch of useless stuff where is there room to bring in what you need. Plus if the world is abundant then why keep anything broken. You can just summon a new one. Right?
Well even it is is not its a great way to clean out the garage. I'm going to apply it to people too. All those friendships on life support because of Facebook, duty or hell because they just live close by are not serving their purpose anymore. Friends that have a negative influence on my life or that I have a legitimate beef with should probably be put in the "broken" category too. No?
I just let let a friend go today. Our friendship was broken. I let a lot of stuff go. But today I decided to test the theory. Hopefully someone supportive, healthy and respectful will take his place. Because sometimes you need to love people from a distance.
