Good morning! I've been in a journey around contemplating clutter.
We, as a family, are CONSTANTLY being gifted stuff.
And it tends to happen more when we let a lot of things go (stay tuned for an upcoming garage sale LOL). With all the joking aside, we are aligning to the point of a major shift in our lives that will result in letting a lot more "things" being shared and let go of.

We have already let go of many of the things....emotionally, mentally....but now their physical departure is pending....
The discussion with the boys recently was in recognizing those in our lives that have been seen to "have" very little but were living within an understanding of a high level of abundance (and impact). Any need was met....and resources showed up for them on demand....and the spiritual connection and freedom they enjoyed was definitely high (Jesus was one of the examples
)

Which brought me back to what it is that we have. We have a WILLINGNESS to share and help others with what has been gifted to us. Time, talent, and resources.....and we are constantly growing in how we can share even MORE of what it is that we do have.
This all starts with first recognizing what we have and then recognizing how it can be used in our lives and the lives of those around us. That also requires getting to know who is around us so that we can get to know their lives and ways in which we can add value....and then simply offer it.
When your currency is connection and relationship....you can experience the gifts of others that they didn't even know they were giving. This is something we have been doing for 10 years with our garage sales....we offer connection. And as soon as we put up the sign, we get a lot of regulars coming in to just connect...and that we offer "free of charge" 

Managing abundance....where is your focus? What do you have? What are you willing to share into your life and others?
