Comment on Is it normal to be really sentimental/upset over a bowl I accidentally smashed? I had it since I was 17 (am 30 now) and my boyfriend was alive back then too.

  I recently moved, and had to throw away a lot of stuff that I couldn’t reasonably take with me. I was fine for most of it, but got really sentimental over a plant. It was just a dumb plant that was barely clinging to life, but I had it the entire time I lived at my previous place. Throwing that scrappy half-dead plant out felt like throwing away a friend. I literally said goodbye to it at the dumpster.

  Thank them for fulfilling a need… And let them go. Their job is done. The task, complete.
