giving clothes away

I'm on a giving clothes away kick. In the past week, I've worn 2 things that I've decided would be better worn by someone else. They are the kind of clothes that maybe made me feel cute 6 years ago, but no longer give me that same feeling. Now they make me feel frumpy or just plain un-put-together.

So, I've washed them, and put them in a brown bag that is destined for a goodwill or some such place. In a way, getting rid of these things that I don't have good memories for is freeing and makes me feel better.

I guess the feeling I get is that I deserve to feel good in my clothes. And so I've been giving away the ones that I don't feel good in.

I've been doing that also. It's hard for me to get rid of things that are still functional...and that I "might" need again someday. But it's really freeing.
