This whole week…
I’m surrounded by my possessions…
That I’m either giving or throwing away…
And keeping only some things that are essential...
To start my new life in Mexico.
I’ve been trying to be philosophical about the process…
At first it felt like my life was being reduced…
Because according to one definition…
Reduce means…
The amount by which something is lessened…
So it could be said…
That the "some" of my life has gotten less.
But in cooking…
The definition of reduce means…
The intensifying of flavor by boiling liquid away.
So it could be said…
That the "some" of my life has intensified…
By reducing it to only the essential possessions.
So?
What do you think?
Is the some…
Less or more?
And what is the some of your life?
Always, Em-Musing
