I am sometimes sad as I go through all my things getting ready to move. Some very sentimental things come up, and sometimes I just have to sit for awhile and deal with perceived losses. I have a lot of "project boxes" of books that I wanted to write, and they are very difficult to deal with. There won't be room for them there. But I might be able to fit the actual writings into one box instead of four or five (!), not sure yet.
The sadness I feel as I do this, however, is very rewarding, as I am feeing lighter somehow and am eager to finish the process. I know that all these THINGS are not part of me, but they have been with me for so long it feels as if they are - were. And there is a great liberataion in giving them away.
I hope that your sadness will soon lift, if it hasn't already. I think it's just another step forward on the labyrinth.
