Letting go

My smurf and Playmobile collection which I am reluctant to throw away.
As I began packing my room, I realized that the only way to make space is to throw out my horde of old toys and reminders of my childhood like books, drawings and notes. These fond memories are hard to let go as I remembered how they have served me; played by my imagination; accompanied me on my loneliest rainy days and even jogged the fragments of good parenting for me, despite the nagging folks 'cheering' me on to discard them. But I guess that's why there's an old Chinese saying 'if the old don't go, the new can't come'.
