Discovering what is Me

Discovering what is me
In my things
My things are not me
And yet...they are
Some of them are
They represent parts of me
Sometimes they've been too tied to me
Or me to them
Hence the clutter
Too much stuff!

Decluttering
And preparing to move
Forces me to discover
What is me
What is not me
Some things
Are precious
Symbols of my journey

Others
Well, they are part of my journey too
But I can let go
My identity is not in the things I have done
Not in the hard work
