My cluttered room got to me and so a few days ago, I started to clear it. As of now, I've given away at least 100 books to the Salvation Army but the process was not easy for me. I told one of my colleagues that the giving away of books was extremely painful for me and I felt as if a part of my skin was being torn off for every book that I chose to part with.
Yesterday, however, a consoling thought floated into my mind. Even if I gave away a book, it will always be a part of my life because I have read it. The book has become part of me because of its impact on my thoughts, my feelings and the rest of me. It's gone but never ever gone from me.
