Life has taken our family trough ups and downs and while we still are somewhat attache to a few of our old things We have come to realize that as long as we are together and healthy that is what is important. <br />Some time ago I wrote a post called "Home is not a house" <br />We lost so much, yet we have gain so much more in a very different way. <br />Thank you for the refresher post!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162883238388829088.post-75950952911560855132014-02-13T06:16:29.775-08:002014-02-13T06:16:29.775-08:00I know what you mean.

My husband backed a 20 foot truck into the driveway and said that if it didn't fit, it wasn't going. Yikes. Guess it's all the same thing, isn't it? Thanks so much for stopping by.<br />JoAnne Potterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12736685999963791015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2162883238388829088.post-31776753654597882472014-02-12T10:03:45.410-08:002014-02-12T10:03:45.410-08:00This is thought-provoking and continues a theme fo...This is thought-provoking and continues a theme for me. Several friends have recently had to down-size their living spaces for a variety of reasons. One of them said to me...this is the stuff we thought we couldn't live without but that we can because we don't get into these boxes. That statement coupled with these thoughts here help me to see that there is so much that I think that I need that I can let go of it...thanks for the encouragement. I think letting go of the stuff gives us room to hang onto God instead. Found you from SDG today.Kathleen T. Jaegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03021119386207509180noreply@blogger.com
