Packing Away The Past.

I've heard it said that time is the best healer of all, and I really think that is true. Over the past year I have been changing things, parting with some and even pitching some out.. Going through things brings back memories and makes you realize some things are gone forever. Asking myself questions "Do I keep this, what about that, or "I remember when we got this.. Some things have been easy to let go and others harder. I have it down to just pictures and certain special dishes that I'm need to deal with. The pictures I'm pretty sure how to handle but the dishes still thinking that one over, after this I feel like I will be able to shut the box and that be the end. Never thought I'd get to this point, and I'm NOT looking back....

Good for you! As for the pictures, I might put them in a storage box & keep them for your kids...later on when they might want them. Of course I am just a sentimental ole woman when it comes to photographs! And if you have anything of Cora's, Katressa would probably want it later on. I don't think you need to "destroy" your past...it is part of you. I have never had to deal with the same situation, but it is almost like dealing with a death. The memories never go away, but time does make it easier. Love you!
