Imagine, if you will, a packed closet.
It’s filled with ugly sweaters, unopened holiday cookies and a variety of other seasonal paraphernalia that, due to lack of time, space and inclination, never got used. As the pile grows and dust accumulates, you avert your eyes in hopes that it will all just disappear. This is nobody’s fault. Most of those gifts were given with good intentions, but despite those intentions, they’re still there, waiting to be regifted or sent to the landfill.
