Past be gone !!



This is by no means a 'I am so good' 'Look at me!!' 'I'm the ducks guts' I'm the ants pants' or the 'bees knees' for that matter.

Let me explain... At 17 (I am now nearly 32, 32 next week for that matter) I was 22 kilos heavier than what I am now. I am now even smaller than what I was at my year seven graduation !!!

My point, I hold on to a lot and I finally realized that some of the material things are not needed in my life, some of the clutter, if not most of it, needed and still needs to go...

I thought and thought, what could I do constructively, rather than destructively to let go of some of my past?


That's when that light bulb moment hit me and I realized that plastic bags needed to be filled, filled to the brim. I am aiming to donate these to the Salvation Army or St Vincent De Paul where someone will need my clothes. They need these clothes more than me. 

 Further to this post, I have managed to fill three big bags so far with STILL MORE TO COME.... I'm not sure how much a standard bag weighs, (to say that it weighs a ton is a slight exaggeration even when carrying it if it feels that way.) If I haven't got rid of more clothes in kilos than I have lost, I would be extremely surprised.
