It had been a long time comin'...
I definitely did my fair share of trains and cabs with carriers and strollers and all the rest of it.
But I never canceled my ZipCar.
Since the last thing I need is another extraneous expense, I cancelled ZipCar last weekend.
It was bittersweet, but it felt good to finally make a decision around something. I am usually indecisive, and when I found myself going into the "Well maybe I'll need it… if I…" I stopped myself and said "You have a car. It's a waste".
Sure, these may seem like silly discussions for people who don't keep everything in site or hold onto all parts of their past, but as I try to get out of these habits, I have to be very conscious of them.
Hoarding sounds like a dirty word… it sort of is, but what is behind it is often dirtier.
So canceling ZipCar is more than what it seems.
It is my letting go of something I do not need.
Our move brought that up for me, time and time again Why was I holding onto this… I'll never use this broken […] or this old […] so why keep it..?
It is a process, but the new home has been the key to unlocking these bad habits and letting them go.
I am ready to let go.

What do you hold on to?
How did you let it go?
