31 days of self love - day 9
September 20, 2017
Well, a lot of things actually. I've been working hard at living minimal, being thoughtful when I buy something and truly thinking if it will make me happy or just clutter my world. I've given away endless bags of clothes and toys and I am still working on getting rid of stuff.
But what is something in my life that I need to get rid of? Well, physical or emotional? I'll focus on physical because every now and then I open my cabinet in the bathroom to grab a soap or bath bomb and tucked away behind a sweet little jar that holds my tampons...yup...is my wedding band, engagement ring, and a ring I was given by X for my birthday shortly after we dated. They are nothing special, I think my wedding solitaire is .33 karat and definitely nothing to write home about. Very simple, very inexpensive, from a big chain jewelers. I don't know why I have them other than I am not sure what to do with them. They wouldn't bring much money on a buy and sell and honestly I couldn't stomach handing over that bad juju to someone else, there's no real cash for gold around here, and I certainly don't want to melt them down and use that tainted gold for another piece of jewellery, I am too superstitious for that. But I need to get rid of them, I need to find a home for them. Somedays I imagine I'll just take them to the Yukon with me and chuck them into a lake because that's truly where my marriage ended for me and I kind of want to leave that life all there and walk away free.

Before I even reached the end of your post I thought to myself "we'll chuck em in the glacial melt!!!"
