- Curious to know: do you keep a just-for-you archive of your writing? Eg on a hard drive.
- Among other things, you modelling composting has helped me hold on more loosely to things I created, owned or even experienced. Instead of obsessing over keeping all the things (or the ‘right’ things). One example is books I accumulated I accumulated over the years. I find more joy now in sharing them than building a big library (and figuring out how to bring them from Europe). Another example is memories. My memory is not what it used to be and while I am capturing some of them for my future self, it feels okay to let the rest go. Sometimes I am disappointed that I let go of a book or didn’t capture a memory, but temporary disappointment doesn’t mean anything went wrong.
