    Hey Scott,

    From our last few emails I saw this may be coming. Pj collecting is neverending - I think the way you are doing it is the only way to get out for good. I'm not saying I'm not surprised, as I an sure you are surprised too - otherwise I guess you'd have never dry mounted but I do respect your decisiveness on this

    you know I'll help if I can, throw me a line if you need anything mate

    i do hope everything is alright mate. i can relate to the whole attachment to things paradox. i have read alot of buddhist philosophy lately and it seems that pain is caused by attachments to things that are dear and people that we love. happiness is a long bumpy road at times mate. take good care.

    I am picking up bits and bits on that too, the Buddhism philosophy... I do have a lot of issues and a lot of learning to do. :?

    But it does help a lot in understanding about myself and people around me....

    But I do have happiness in a sense of relationship with my husband and children...but everything else.... quite a challenge.

    I guess a king never loses his throne.... so yeah, king. He still is a PJ fan..... but no more trade. So maybe PJ King.

    I am happy that it is nothing serious affecting your health or financial security. Whatever your reasons, I hope it will give you the outcome you desire. Best of luck.

    Wow! It sounds like you have been doing some soul searching. I can tell you have not come to this decision without thinking it through. I do not think I have ever met you Scott but I really hope your decision brings you happiness and peace. Take care brother.

    After all, you did say it wasn't a $$ thing.

    You are right, I did say that....but I will tell you that I am not too much in the charitable mood right now..I am going through a selfish phase... ;-) but thanks for the suggetion...I will keep it in mind! ;-)

    I appreciate your concern with that, but just because I am purging doesnt mean I wont be trading...Just taking a break from that for a while...but I will give it some thought!



    As for everyone else....Thanks for the wellwishes....I will come out on top of this....I always do! :-)

    much respect to the OP.

    but see that's why i don't collect stuff.
    you can't take it with you......

    and i don't know the OP story but that's how i feel about people that collect stuff.

    but to each their own. carry on!

    Cheers on becoming minimalist! It is very freeing.

    I used to own a car. Now I walk, I take the bus and subway.
    I used to rent a one-bedroom apartment. Now I rent a "studio."
    I used to have a cool collection of miniature toys and figures. I sold them to pay bills.
    One year ago, I had cable tv service, internet, and a telephone company. Now my internet triples as all three.
    I remember when I sometimes owned two pairs of shoes. I can't imagine being that excessive and frivolous today.

    When I notice 'stuff' accumulating in my closets, I sell it or give it away. Packrats and hoarders are not happy people. I still get new things- I enjoy them for a time, and then sell them on when I've had my fill.
