Things

I have too many things. Too many material possessions - so many that I can't enjoy my favourite things - books, clothes, pictures, movies, jewellery, because they are cluttered up amongst the mundane.

Then I have too many thoughts and too many regrets, and these are less easy to stop hoarding. I wish I could get a skip and chuck some of them in. Perhaps all that can be done is to adopt towards a position of non-bitterness.

I used to think that it was a serious design flaw that your brain began to lose its cells from your 20s. But now I think it may have not been an oversight.
