In case you didn't know, Lent is the 40 day period from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday. Traditionally, Catholics give something up for Lent-chocolate, alcohol, the Internet, etc.
This year, I'm going to do something a little different during Lent. Each day, I'm going to clear out a space-whether it's a drawer, a closet, or a room. By clearing out the old, the forgotten, the unwanted, I'm hoping to make room for the new-a fresh start, if you will.
It's amazing how much stuff one can accumulate over time. The physical clutter can become metal clutter as well. At times, it can become overwhelming-there is just so much stuff, you don't know where to begin. I'm hoping that by attacking it little by little, day by day, I can not only free up space in my house, but also clear up space in my mind-for organization, for creativity, etc.
So that's my goal for Lent. What's yours?
