Xmas morning brought a shock to the village, a nice guy aged sixty three was found to have died in his sleep ! My son use to work with him so it hit him hard especially as he was also my age ! The sad part was his wife ended her life through severe post natal depression so he now leaves an only daughter alone in the World !
It's times like this that you consider your own situation, how much of a mess with your Cding stuff are you leaving to your family to sort out and deal with ?
I'm not planning a purge because my wife knows where my things are but I need to go through it and clear out some things I'll never wear ! Perhaps it's the time to ask for proper storage space so things can be kept cleaner and better organised so disposal would be easier for them if the problem arose ! It's selfish to say I won't be here so I won't know !
I guess this is the problem if you're in the closet ! Maybe we get to a certain age where coming out to the family is not a selfish act but one of trying to make things easier for them.
