Thank you, Maureen! It's so different for me to write more introspective pieces and I'm not sure I would have felt nudged to do so without Beth Kempton's Winter Writing Sanctuary! So grateful to her for opening that door, and love it that you enjoyed this piece :)
Tracy, I absolutely love this. You have personified the way my life, and I'm sure many others', becomes, with the "clutter" hidden away, "moldering and scattered in clusters like refuse." Our ideas are not, absolutely not, refuse. Each and every one has come to us--or through us--for a reason. It's essential that we take the time and care to clean the mold off and allow each one to shine with its own light. Our lives, and others, will be so much fuller!
This was lovely. ❤️ I especially love the phrase, "a disturbing amount of reorganizing!"

Loved this! Unfortunately, my outer world is as moldering and cluttered as the inner one :P
Perfect time to spring clean! I’m glad you enjoyed it and thanks for commenting.
You're welcome, and I love your plucky optimism! :)
