my perspective on letting go of things…
As I’ve been selling a lot of pieces from my home, the question that has come up most often is, “How can you let go of these beautiful things?” The short answer is, “It’s all a matter of perspective.” But, that’s sort of a non-answer answer, so let me give you the long answer. There […]
