Hoarding

I watched this show called "Hoarders"... I wasn't too sure about what that meant at first. Hoarding is defined as a disorder marked by an obsessive need to acquire (and failure to use or discard) a significant amount of possessions, even if the items are worthless or hazardous. Only in America can someone accumulate so many things it overcomes their homes/lives... But... after watching the show I began to think about things that I hold onto... I realized that although I don't have too many physical possessions... I tend to collect thoughts and acquire memories beyond my need... It is the reason why I can become overloaded at times... I hold onto memories, thoughts, people even after they fail to be useful anymore... Attempting to delete/discard some of those things that can be hazardous to my peace of mind...
