Dear Marie Kondo:
I am so thankful for your book and the work you have done on tidying. Truly, it changed my life. For years I have been trying to tidy my house, my life, my piles 🙂 without success, until I adopted your system of tidying.
Seriously, life-changing. I can’t remember where I learned about this book, but I loved reading this! The author introduces her KonMari method of changing your life by decluttering your home. Down to earth, but slightly ethereal, it was really well written, easy to read, and intuitive. Some of my favorite points were:
If it doesn’t spark joy, then get rid of it respectfully (and say thank you).
Thank the things that have served you well, and give them a new home.
Magic happens when you tidy up.
Treat your belongings like they are alive–say thank you to your house, shoes, and other items for all they do for you.
I gladly welcome the life-changing magic of tidying up to my list of Beautiful Books!
