I probably wouldn't have done it if I didn't just finish reading Packing Light and thinking about all the stuff we have in life that just becomes more stuff.
I probably wouldn't have done it if I didn't already have old purses laying around that I was going to someday use again but never do.
I probably wouldn't have done it if I was more attached to it in the first place.
But I was all those things and I did do it.
I dumped out all my stuff out of my purse to give it to somebody who said they liked it.
I thought,...travel light. Be more generous. Be more spontaneous. Be more of that person that you want to be become. And what will you remember more? That time when somebody said they liked your purse and you said, "thanks" or the time you said..."you can have it, I just ordered a new one anyway". And dumped it all out. Even with no plan of how you were going to carry your stuff to the car without it.
Be that person.
