In the second part of life you get rid of stuff you've accumulated.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I go through life accumulating possessions... I've always done it... and then, every once in a while, a sort of tidal wave comes along and washes them all away.
When everything in a person's life is gone, ripped-out gone, it's not that you stay empty for so long, so you replace it with something else very quickly.
Through your life, most people peel away the junk that's not useful, that's superfluous. You are determined to peel that away. I do one thing at a time. One man at a time. One car. One house. One child. One job.
My life is, in a sense, trash. My life is only that of which the residue is my writing.
Nobody likes to throw stuff away. It's just antithetical to our sense of being a person. But we're all habituated to that way of living today.
Some people have a hard time getting rid of stuff. If that's you, pray for God to give you the courage to get rid of things you don't really need or things He wants you to give away. This will help keep your surroundings organized and clutter-free.
I have a lot of money stashed away, but I do live my life from day to day.
You take what's thrown at you, and you make a life out of it.
Life is not accumulation, it is about contribution.
Life is like a sewer: what you get out of it depends on what you put into it.
