That sounds like a Wow! As I've been taking end of the year personal inventory, my spice drawer is full, I have multiple sets of most things I've collected or accumulated over the years, mostly parts of something bigger, a collection or sometimes things I'm curious about and yet never actually followed through with. My mental space is constantly working on something. I have shredded and burned old journals, love letters, and other things, given away, thrown out or disposed of in some way.
Deleted in the way we used to do things.
I have wondered with all the accumulation of things created in the internet space, what happens when it's time to let go of it? I'm glad to know of someone who is open to that instead of having the equivalent of an overstocked garage packed with organizational paraphernalia that is in itself an accumulation.
Like, how does one Just Let It Go? (You should see my office/studio space! Far from zen or feng shui and yet I am working in the direction. Who do I want to be? and then Be that person.)
What's really truly important. I guess along with the Delete goes the Stop Doing. My choir is doing Mozart's Requiem. I've sung it before with another choir a long time ago when I was a very different person. She couldn't actually read the score. It's hard to explain how that works. I'm finally learning how to read music and it's changed completely my experience with music. I could have kept the same score that's full of comments. Instead, I've chosen to buy a new score. Making space for what ever comes up.
"Reading the score". This is a much bigger conversation, Tammy, than this space allows for. It's one of my personal challenges at the end of this year, how to make room for IRL conversations. It's an odd side effect of learning to read music, recognizing just how often I believe I'm singing the right note and I'm not. Recognizing the same is true in conversations, assuming instead of really listening, and getting some things "wrong" ( thinking about your question the other day about being wrong) which can be disastrous. Making space in the mind for having the headspace to listen, how does one delete mental clutter? Ah, yes, wait, I know the answer to that one, it's down the hall to the right past the door that says "Webinars-lifecoaching", before the table with the stack of colour studies in photography, yes, I think the door says "Mindfulness - docs, youtube links, workshops, webinars, pdf files"... its a bit crowded in there.
Good morning Tammy!
Delete.

Delete the way we used to do things! Wow! That is a great sentence.
I have accumulated so much digital stuff. It never used to feel like a problem but it does recently.
Yes, what is truly important. One of the few books I reread is Essentialism by Greg McKeown.
I used to play the violin and knew some people that didn't read the music well. There is a lot you can do by listening/hearing.
Yay for a fresh score so you can be open! You are making the space for something great.
