Once a year, usually springtime, your mom and dad get a few boxes, and we sorted out clothing items that we haven't worn for the past year or two and divided them into two piles. The first pile will go to the local charity or Goodwill. The second pile will be given away to relatives or friends. Sometimes we've even posted certain items on Craigslist or eBay and they'll get picked up real fast :).
After we are done with the closet, we move to the kitchen and bathrooms. We get rid of towels, utensils and kitchen appliances that were given to us as gifts or we bought but rarely used, and give them away. At the end of the day, the closet has much more space, neater, and the kitchen and bathrooms drawers have lot less items we don't really use or need. We have a dozen of spoons, a dozen of forks, a dozen of knives, a dozen of plastic containers of all sizes with their lids, a dozen of towels, etc. We actually have thought about reducing that number to six of each. We'll see when that happens.
Want more blessings? Create a vacuum in your life. Give and share your blessings to others who really need it. The more you give, the more you receive.
