The past and future


It's amazing how some reading materials elicit certain responses. She was never one for 'self help' titles. But this manga based on a tidying method by Marie Kondo made her think. While her eyes lingered on this page, she thought about her past, her future. She thought about her relationships. What she wanted in her life. 

Tracing her index finger over the arrow with the text 'Fear For The Future', her mind wandered to the three boys she ever really loved. Not at the same time, of course. She was not that kind of girl. Still, she could not but think about how her life would be like if she ended up with any one of them.

The past. The future. Perhaps it is true. She can never move on if she clings on to the past. Or if she fears the future. Deep thoughts indeed. All from a picture book on decluttering.
