Organization Frenzy Leads to Calm

Two weeks ago we set out on a mission to de-junk our lives and organize every closet, cupboard, and miscellaneous storage space in our house. We must have been motivated by the realization that we are going to have to put our house on the market and move some time in the not-too-distant future.

I’m not an organized person by nature. In fact, I’ve always enjoyed having just a little smidge of chaos in my life. It makes things more exciting that way.

But I have to admit, so far I love the novelty of having my entire home in order – even the spaces that aren’t readily visible. It’s a good feeling to walk into my garage or open my freezer and sense calmness, peace, and tranquility.
