The process of stripping away things that can be discarded☆☆

What is "Danshari" (decluttering)?

I have written several articles about "Danshari" before.
One of them is ↓↓↓
I would be happy if you could read it when you have time💛

Today's theme is not just about "Danshari," but I would like to write about "mental decluttering."

To let go of attachments within one's own heart

In the first place, when Hideko Yamashita, who spread "Danshari" to the world, was asked what "Danshari" is for,

she answered, "To let go of attachments within one's own heart." (nod)!!

And by doing "Danshari,"

you also let go of (heavy) thoughts, so your heart becomes lighter! ⇒ If you do Danshari, your life will also be organized.
Yes, "Danshari" is not just about throwing things away.

I believe that the number one thing you should do first in "Shukatsu" (end-of-life planning) is "Danshari."

Even if there are things you cherish, you cannot take them to heaven when you die. Not a single thing...

Everyone, everyone heads to heaven in the form they were born in.

Therefore, once you start thinking about "Shukatsu," there is no need to hoard things.

Furthermore, it is a difficult task for the family left behind to clean up a place overflowing with things.

Of course, by doing Danshari, you can also look back on your own life, so it's like killing three birds with one stone (lol).

The process of stripping away things that can be discarded

However, actually, that is not the theme for today.
(I kept you waiting for quite a while, though...)

Yesterday, in "The time left for me,"
I wrote that I have feelings of "I want to do this," "I want to do that," "I want to study this," and "I want to challenge myself with that."

I also wrote that it is sad that time passes by in the blink of an eye every day and it becomes evening before I know it.

But, what is at the bottom of that heart...?

Here too,I thought that maybe I "cannot let go of the attachments in my own heart." Of course, I still think "I am young" inside, and I don't give up, and I believe I can still take on challenges.

But, but...

If you think you don't have enough time for yourself,

I realized that it might be necessary to also engage in the process of stripping away things that can be discarded while successfully balancing "things I want to do" and "things I must do."

And,even if it is a "thing I must do," I would like to change it into a "thing I want to do" if possible☆☆

Because, isn't it a waste if you are doing it reluctantly?

If I am going to do it anyway, I want to do everything with enjoyment and joy.

Still, since there is only so much I can do within the time of my own life and within my own means,thinking about work-life balance and choosing what is important to me.

As I become a senior, I felt that was important.

As I said yesterday, that is not 'giving up'.

It is a life choice💛

So, in the end, it really comes down to these words.

Don't overdo it!

Live loosely and fluffily!

Let's live gently, leisurely, and work hard from time to time(*^-^*)

And let's think every day about 'what to strip away'💪

Actually... I'm quite busy right now (lol)

But maybe it's fine as long as it's fun💛

Aside

This is an aside(^^♪
I suddenly wondered what age 'senior' refers to, so I looked it upφ(..)

It seems the UN defines seniors as 60 and over, and the WHO as 65 and over... (lol)
