I really loved this post. I love your writing but most of the time it feels more aspirational than applicable to me, maybe because I don’t have a high powered tech job or big career.

But this really hit home.

I have a feeling that at most times I'd have cheered on the sentiment.

Vaguely uncertain why I'm not right now though.

There's something distinctly human about latching on to memories. We latch on to loss because it's human to feel the pain of losing some(thing/one).

And while there's ultimately always a balance between healthy/unhealthy, everyone will have a different one:)

We have a simple rule - If we haven’t used an old stuff for last 3-5 years, we may not use it in the future. That will be marked for donating to Goodwill. This helped us to get rid of unused stuff which can be useful to others.
