Both Noel and I have been feeling that familiar urge to purge in the last few weeks. He's eyeing a bunch of audio gear that he never uses; I'm eyeing things in the office and drawing studio that haven't been used and are not likely to be used in the next four years.
Today I found Karen Kingston's web page through a circuitous route, and came across this excerpt from her book, Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui:
If you somehow get your life moving again, you will instinctively want to clear the clutter out of your home and make a fresh start. It will feel like the obvious thing to do.
I've been thinking about how to make things happen more smoothly and effectively (as I prepare to do some serious academic work for the first time in more than a decade; City College definitely does not count), and I think a nice flushing of the house systems might be a good thing. Maybe it's time to take all that ceramic ware and make the mosaic I've been saying I want to make. Then I can get rid of everything I didn't use in good conscience.
