purging

i helped load up a few boxes for some old friends the other day.  she said, "adam and i said we'd love to be missionaries and get rid of everything."

it really got me thinking.

i was going to be that person.  i was ready to do that.

but not doing that made me want to cling to things.

so last night i purged.  i went through my drawers and my closet and got rid of clothes i don't wear.

and packed some bags for Goodwill.

but the lesson is bigger than the bags...the lesson and the challenge is for me to hold things with loose fingers.
