- Go to We All Have to Take Out The Trash
I like your analogy. Let me add, from my own experience, some trash is harder to get rid of and despite our best efforts, it can leave a stain. Thankfully, stains fade.

Very insightful! I do as much as I can for myself. It's great for the mind. I took the trash out years ago on the baggage in my life!

Well, I often wonder what to put in the rubbish bin or the recycling bin. I have seen some rum things. What I hate is when someone passing dumps their doggy bag in my bin.

You have made some great examples of dealing with trash. It certainly is a part of each of our lives. Thousands of tons of trash get hauled away and buried daily in our world, and not all of it disintegrates quickly. I have wondered from time to time if we are walking on one big heap of trash that has piled up underground over time. I can't remember a time when I didn't have to take out the trash. Not fun, but definitely necessary.
