I have become someone who folds and rolls her underwear and tucks them into a tiny box inside the drawer.
I used to be someone who just stuffed them all in a drawer and shoved it shut, until recently the shoving had become rather forceful, because the drawer was overfull. So I KonMari’ed my dresser, and while folding and rolling my underwear while folding laundry is still annoying me, opening that tidy (non-shoved) drawer and finding all my things tucked tidily and prettily inside? That fills me with delight every single morning.
And because I am someone who seeks more delight in my life, I started wondering how Marie Kondo’s ideas about confronting your stuff could be applied to more than the physical stuff in my life, but also the mental stuff.
