Is it worth it?

Moving and asking the question if something is worth the effort.

Should it be carefully placed in a box? Should it be taped up and labelled? Should it be put on the list, put on the truck, moved across country? Would we want it when we get to the other side?

Or rather ask: Why the hell are we packing this?

I have a table piled with stuff, the beginning of a pack, and I know most of it I don’t even want now, never mind three months from now. But it is easier just to take a bigger box and scoop everything inside—we can always sort it out later, right?

Maybe not. What if we do not pack one single thing we do not want?

Packing would take longer. We would move less stuff. We would arrive with less stuff.
