Mental Spring Cleaning 🧠

There’s a shelf in my brain, a dusty one too,
Stacked with old worries—some vintage, some new.
A few labelled “Regrets”, one “What-ifs” in blue,
And a whole box marked “Stuff I Can’t Undo.”

So, I rolled up my sleeves, grabbed a mop made of hope,
To tidy those thoughts that made it hard to cope.
Tossed out old grudges—expired, stale brand,
And recycled the dreams I still understand.

Found “comparison clutter” under my chair,
Oh my, how it sparkled—like gossip in air!
But I swept it away with a confident grin,
Saying, “I’m not in their race, my joy’s from within!”

Labeled some memories “Keep,” others “Donate,”
The ones that brought laughter, I’d never negate.
But those looping worries that played like bad art?
I hit “delete” twice—to be extra smart.

Now my head feels lighter, like clouds in a song,
Even my to-do list hums, “You’re doing strong!”
A clear mind’s a home where happiness stays,
So I declutter my thoughts—on most modern days.


💭 Thought to Ponder:
When your mind feels overcrowded, remember — peace isn’t found by adding more space, but by keeping only what brings you grace.
