Survey #280—Full Response from Suzanne
| Pronouns | She/her |
|---|---|
| Express your gratitude for something in your home that you plan to keep indefinitely. How does this item support the life you love? | I am grateful to have a desk my father built when he was 18. It reminds me him but also of some values we shared in life. Plus it’s a useful piece of furniture even if doesn’t go with anything, to an outsider. |
| Describe someone or something that has helped you on your decluttering and organizing journey. This may be an idea, a story, a person, a book, a resource, etc. | I’m grateful for the feeling of Hope which is always present in some measure. I’m also grateful that my city picks up recycling from my home on a weekly basis and that there are charity shops nearby, as well as bins for textile clothing and footwear donations. Their mere presence help me along my decluttering journey. |
| Describe something that you’re grateful for having been able to declutter and release from your life. | I’m grateful for having been able to release a 24 volume cookbook collection that just wasn’t right for me. It was a gift that a significant other thought I would love; I loved the generosity and the gesture but I couldn’t use it or love it even after 2-3 decades. |
| Identify something in your space for which you feel grateful, but which you’d consider releasing so that someone else can enjoy and appreciate it. | It’s funny. I think I could actually release an awful lot of things that I enjoy and use if someone said oh I would love to have this. So far I have said, I’ll let my sons know for when I’m dead though they get first pick, for 3-4 items (nothing I have is pricey$$$) |
