To see the world in a grain of sand

To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour.

On hoarding – Do we hoard in our relationships?

So…. I’ve removed most of my stuff from a manic 2-3ams massive clean out of my rooms. Boy, am I a hoarder! Why do I keep all this stuff?!?!?

Reasons include: aww it ll bring back do many memories when I look at it again, it s important to me, i can show this to my friend again next time and remind ourselves of what a great/funny/beautiful time we had.

Then it struck me: are we like this with our relationships? Fossify them into nostalgic “this was before”s? Yes, it does bring back memories – but is it important now? Did thins change?

Yes they have. And I m dealing with all this change – learning to be present to all my friends and family members: yes, things have changed, but if our relationships are based on genuine concern and love, then those “hoards”, however lovely, should never be the basis of our relationship. These can be quite dangerous :/

Here s me sweeping the cob webs of every corner in a life. Yikes.
