Excavating My Life

Life is a series of accumulation and excavation.  I find that it looks like
and feels like an archeological dig!
Why do I feel the need to keep something just for the sake of keeping
it?  Is it what makes memories tangible?  Would I forget if I did not see
touch or feel the past?  There is only so much room in a dwelling but my mind
can store so much more.
At this point, I'm standing at the bottom of what seems like the canyon.
I see striations of years in these things of my past.  They are beautiful but keep
me from looking at my horizon.
I want to look over the rim and see what is ahead and go there!
