It’s been a minute since I have written anything. And oh how I have missed it. Writing has always been my outlet, a way for me to express my thoughts and feelings, joys and sadnesses, wins and losses. However, for the past few years, my mind has been so cluttered and so jam packed with life happenings, that the words simply would not come to me. It’s almost like, I had TOO much to say and my brain was too overstimulated to be able to say anything at all, if that makes sense?????

But the fog is lifting and the words have returned, so I thought I would start a fun little series called “Living with Less.”

There is actually a two-fold meaning there. So if you know me well or if you have ever been to my home, you know that I am a minimalist to my core. Clutter makes me break out in hives. And I love to clean out and organize, CONSTANTLY.

But what I have found is that, decluttering the mind is just as important as decluttering tangible items. If you are able to talk about it and process it, it is easier to let it go. Poof. Out of your mind, freeing up space for more important things.

Now, let me be the first to confess, coming from someone who is EXTREMELY PRIVATE, sharing is very difficult for me to do. But I have found that when I share, it helps me to process and heal. Sharing is forever a work in progress for me. The first time I began sharing my life was after the sudden death of my dad. It shattered my whole world. I was drowning and lost so I decided to share my innermost thoughts with a private audience and thus my blog, Grace in Threes, was born.

So here we go, a new series “Living with Less” will be a safe place where I share how we can mentally live with less clutter in our minds on various topics I know we ALL struggle with, while also sharing tips as to how I live with less physical clutter in my home.

Stay tuned! My first post will be out September 1st, because who doesn’t love the first of the month as a new beginning!
