    I despise waste, especially food.
    However I like ‘throwing things out’ to be rid of things I know I do no need or want. I need to be more careful not to let new things in.

      I hope you get to pass on your things to someone else. When I left Arizona, I gave all my books to the Scottsdale public library. If you’re ever passing through, you’ll find they have a good section on metaphysics, Thomas Moore and spirituality! I don’t recall any charity shops per se but there must have been some. I was lucky. I arranged with a migrant family who was dumpster diving behind my apartment building to come and pick up my bed and my dining room suite when I left town. I hope they got good use out of it. American Express had moved to Arizona and so there were a couple of Indian workers on H1 visas in my complex. They got all my Bollywood video tapes! I left Arizona with my massage table, clothes and tax files packed into my car. I took the contents with me to England and sold the car. Somehow, 10+ years later, I am still only holding onto the same stuff, with the addition of a couple of paintings. Different tax years, but still the same old stuff. As for food waste – I make scrambled eggs with whatever-is-going-off every once in awhile. Same with pasta and various wilted vegetables. And, the freezer is my greatest ally. I hope when you get rid of stuff, I find that it frees up some space for new ideas to flourish. Xx
