Ugly collection


I have an ugly collection. An ugly collection is a collection of ugly things I keep because they have sentimental value. The Teddy bear on the right is a bear Des brought home. I told him it was ugly and he was very offended because I said it was ugly. Joanne said she wanted it and kept it until she cleaned our her room recently. It was in a box of things she did not want. I rescued the bear because Des brought it home.

The troll on the left was the first toy Samantha choose in a shop when she was a baby. Alta and Dad took her to the shop. She took a liking to the troll and did not want to leave the shop with out it. They bought it for her. How can I get rid something like that? This is my clutter dylema, how can I through things out that have a sentimetal value or memory attached. I dont need these items, but I want to keep them. Do I need to let go?

My Blog

Over the past weeks as I have posted things on My blog I have come to know more about myself and who I am. I am exploring aspects of myself that I have not for a very long time. Even if no one looks at this blog this is a good enough reason for me to do this.

It is also a little like keeping a journal, but diffent because you are just a little more careful what you record because others might see what you have written.

Most of all I have enjoyed the time spent and rediscovered things about myself I have forgoten.

This has also made me aware of things I am sensitive about and did not know i was senstive about, like my testimony, the things I believe and feelings.
