Except now I have a lot less books than I once had. 
I've been downsizing. 
Letting my books go. 
Selling them off. 
Giving them away. 
I thought it would be hard. 
But, it's actually really nice. 
I feel like I'm setting myself free somehow. 
I love books. 
They are my everything. 
Except that they aren't. 
I'm learning that I don't have to keep things just because they are books. 
Just because they have pages. 
And words. 
And that smell of old tree with ink. 
I'm a writer. 
I used to be a book hoarder. 
But not anymore. 
Even though I kind of still am...
I decided though, that if it ever came down to it, I could live happily with only 3 books. 
Here they are (in order): 
1. once upon a time when i was a rabbit
2. If I Ran The Zoo
3. Book of Hugs (that may or may not be the actual title...but I'm leaning towards may)
Those pretty much sum up my personality. 
~live your own truth~
