Too much stuff!
From Patricia Digh at 37 Days, I read:
So let's dump some stuff aside as we tackle these 100 posts in 100 days.
Troy may be the centurion but let's perform more like a jazz band,
riffing on the posts, comments, and what is happening around us.
And let's leave the stuff behind ...
stuff like
prejudice
greed
pettiness
It will be good to go forth
into this new blogging venture
with only what we had at birth
with what we have learned since then
but only what we can carry between our ears
like common sense
respect
playfulness
and...
well, what would you add?
It is Stuff that keeps us from participating fully, our mobility and sense of fun and playfulness and ability to be directly engaged muted by our concern for objects, our holding onto.
