You can’t reach for anything new until your heart is filled with yesterday’s junk
De clutter your soul.

Those were the days
we wore fervour like summer hats,
set foot on dizzy afternoons
to wander alleys like lost cats.
Shopaholic was our second name
we carried with mammoth pride.
We glided across random streets
at the busiest markets
like the baggage on conveyor belts
with our eyes scanning through
every outlet we zoomed past.
The clothes, the accessories, the artefacts,
the laptop tables
what not!
We lapped on softies,
ate at Biryani joints,
sunk under shady corners.
We learned how to bargain,
we aced at negotiations.
We insisted on rain checks at stores
that ran out of stock.
A decade later, here we are
decluttering home every Sunday morning
like a ritual that blesses us with inner peace
as though the bigger the clutter
the more contented the grins.
Somewhere along the decade,
we witnessed a few greys, a few wrinkles
and gallons of wisdom.

I've been working on decluttering my mind of the litter,it is inundated with.
Learning has never been asmuch intimidating as unlearning.
It's overtly the crap,I ought to let go,to create space for a whole lot,my life has in store for me.
For me,2018 has played its conspicuous role.

One thing that I do for myself is
I often declutter my desk,
I don't like to keep unnecessary things,
I find peace in that mundane task.
Sometimes I find only a page to throw,
But I would have unloaded and reloaded the entire desk and shelf.

i decided to manage my Saavn playlist. a week back, i rearranged my Pinterest boards. yesterday, i restacked my bookshelf as soon as i woke up. it seems like i am decluttering anything and everything. being a messy person by birth, this New Normal gives me space to fabricate doubts. doubts about my descent, my originality and my existence. i am merely existing and this vague existence is pregnant with satisfaction and gratitude. i am writing thank-you notes to friends who are saving me from virtual crises. i stay satisfied, pushing aside complaints. though my Netflix obsession has transcended my love for reading, i try not to overreact; for i'll be shattered if i get to know that books have just been an escapism for me from my routine.

maybe, that's how i am. for Time is the Lord and i am scheduled to plan schedules.

Take sometime to declutter
The mental clutter.

De clutter your mind

By teaching new things
to the old patterns of the mind.

Here in front of me lies
Boxes of memories of this year
Now with the Christmas gone
Its time to declutter
And make some room
for the coming year.

"Writing". It can be just a word but also an emotion in itself. One writes what he/she feels that particular moment. It can be about them or how they feel about others and experiences they have had through life. Writing gives our thinking a clarity, helps better thoughts to take shape within us. So, writing is a method of decluttering our brain in the most effective and proven way
