Packing up the past.

I am suppose to be packing up my room for the summer; however, I am laying on my bed. Pride and prejudice playing (for the 100th time). 

I look around the room and I see things. Things that I can throw away things that I can keep. 

My closet is spilling out with clothes. My drawers are doing the same thing. And under my bed are bins of shoes that I didn't even get to wear this past year. 

And as I may on my bed and the soft music from the movie soundtrack is playing the background, that is when I realize that my life is much like this closet and under my bed. 

It's over flowing with things. Alot of things I need to get rid of. And alot of things I didn't even use 

Unlike the clothes in the closet or the shoes under the bed, I can't pack them up in boxes to give away. Or space bags to save me room in storage. 

My life is overflowing with emotions and past memories that are taking up space. I realize that in my mind I tried to box these feelings up and memories up and put them in the back for storage. But I can't move on in life(comfortably) bringing around things that I don't need. 

So as I clean my room up I made a vow with this process I'll start packing up the past and leave it there. 

I'll feel much lighter and hell I'll even make room for new feelings and adventures to take place. 

Just like my closet, it can always use some new colors
