Many times I use free space as a dropping off point. I make the mistake of believeing that the clutter will occupy the free space only temporarily, that it will eventually find its way to its true and proper place. But time constraints and distractions creep into my schedule and the clutter keeps “nesting” in its new home. Eventually I get tired of it and spend time doing what I should have done in the first place - put it away in its proper place! Unfortunately, because some of the proper places aren’t organized, the cycle quickly repeats itself. I need to tackle the source - the disarray I have created and the purging that needs to be done. Some days I feel as if that is a metaphor for my life, clean, clear out and purge!
