Chronicling 365 days of ridding my home of its excess... because... "The more you have, the more you have to have to take care of the things you have." - Jungle Jam

Day 227 - Bell
There are school bells, church bells, sleigh bells, door bells, southern belles, and the Liberty Bell; but why in the world was there a bell tucked away in the back of my dresser drawer? Oh well, I don't love it, use it, or need it, so it's going into the donation box today.

Wise words from Randy Alcorn concerning Possessions:
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you want.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the less you’re satisfied.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more people will come after it.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you realize it does you no good.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you have to worry about.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you can hurt yourself by holding on to it.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you have to lose.
THE MORE YOU HAVE, the more you’ll leave behind.
