So here I am, cleaning out the basement of this apartment, surrounded by piles of stuff I’ve tucked away for whom knows how long. It’s wild, thee things we store away, thinking we might need them one day… or worse, forgetting they even exist. So did we really need it ? Ha! Not at all 🤍 But here’s thee thing… things left unchecked for too long start to rust, stain & crumble over time. So many things I had forgotten about (ruined) And now it got me thinking… isn’t that just like us? Me ? We ?
We get distracted, right? We keep ourselves busy with thee surface stuff—because sometimes, diving into thee heart of things is just too much to handle & face. And distractions (well it’s a form of procrastination) so they’re good in doses, necessary even. But, if we leave thee basement of our souls unattended for too long, that rust and wear start creeping into places & spaces we didn’t even realize were vulnerable or in desperate need of healing. What’s good within us can begin to corrode if we don’t give it attention, if we don’t check in with ourselves and clean out the cobwebs (intentionally) every now and then.
Finding old things in this basement, things I’ve left to rot in corners for years, is like stumbling upon parts of me I’ve ignored. It’s heavy in a way I didn’t expect & yet, it feels like such a divine release. I mean, how often do we carry around the weight of stuff we no longer need… old memories, outdated beliefs, past relationships & we do this without even realizing we’re doing it! That’s the deep sea diver I am, y’ALL. Reflection and introspection go deep with me & this process of packing up and tossing things out feels like cleaning house on the inside, too.
As I let go of what’s been weighing me down, there’s a sense of lightness, a reminder that we don’t have to carry everything with us. Some things are meant to be left behind so we can make room for what’s fresh, what’s real & what’s truly aligned with where we are NOW.
