I have a theory that most of us would be more than willing to let go of the stuff that’s cluttering our homes if we knew these things would serve a worthwhile cause or help someone else. And I know too well the conflict.
It’s nearly impossible for me to let go of things that are not worn out or broken—clothing or household items that are still lovely with considerable useful life. The solution I’ve discovered that allows me to let go with a lot of joy and relief is to make sure these items are rehomed to a place where they will be appreciated and put back into useful service.
