When it’s time to change up our lives, it can include ‘downsizing.’ Getting rid of a list of things that don’t have room in our current world. This sounds easy, just toss that old couch, right? That may be easy, but what about a set of golf clubs that are sitting in the closet, but hold endearing memories?
You haven’t been to the course in years. It’s better to give them away to someone who might appreciate them. You’re never able to make that happen. It’s a common experience. Human beings tend to get emotionally attached to inanimate objects. There’s a sense of security around things we’ve connected our memories to. Especially if you’ve named it, like a car.
