can you change?

I have a recurring conversation with a friend about our different decorating styles. Well, she has style, I don’t. That’s pretty much the discussion. I’d love to be more minimalistic like she is but I cannot for the life of me stop the clutter. I have packed things away in boxes in the shed and whilst they might stay there, I just seem to accumulate more. I don’t know where it comes from, it just pops up I swear!  Then the things in boxes somehow come back out, it might take a few years but they come back. Well give them away I hear you say. Um, I have a problem with that too. I get sentimentally attached to things and can’t throw them away. Sometimes I’m ruthless and do a good toss out but I always regret something about it later whether it was the cane basket that held my daughter’s birth gift – the handle was just a little broken – or the picture my sister gave me when I was five – well no I don’t want to hang it up, I’ve grown out of it but how can I throw it away?

Suffice to say that I have come to accept that I will always have clutter and I have to deal with it.  It seems to be part of who I am. I’ve tried and tried to change but I can’t. It’s not like I break the bank or anything, my clutter is mostly candles, crystals, a few ornaments… actually, it’s probably because our house is too small. Yep, that’s gotta be it.

Anyway, I had a laugh to myself today when I came across something interesting. I’m studying a numerology course at the moment and today I learned how to work out my Soul Number. This is who I am at the very core and the things that I will be most unlikely to ever change.  You work it out in several steps and the first part says:

You may become a collector. You love to collect material things.

Ha ha ha. Funny, no? All this time I’ve been trying to change something that is embedded in my soul. Any wonder it didn’t work.
