Letters and cards
Downsizing is just that
To carry less in one’s life
And yet I cannot
Let go of some things
Lynda wrote me notes
Constantly in the seventh grade
I never look at them or read them
But each folded note is a time capsule
Come up for a visit! Open the big red door at the base of the tree and you'll find a set of spiral stairs leading to the treehouse. Or, if you are more adventurous, there's a rope ladder around back. You'll love it up here! There's a room full of toys and another where you can send and receive secret messages. There's also a room full of pillows where you can snuggle in to read a good book or take a nap. It's great up here! Come join the fun!

I can relate. Hmmm...it's always a dilemma, thanks for writing this down.
I have been clearing away the clutter and sorting and sifting, which is something I am often inspired to do in January. Like you I would have trouble discarding things like this which can be stored in a pocket somewhere.
I will be moving soon and will have to put my possessions on a major diet in order to squeeze into a smaller, more affordable home. I hope I have the foresight to keep important treasures such as your notes are for you.
