It’s where all things of good intention go to their final resting place.
There’s that place in almost every home that is a place of hiding, a place of distress, a place that is a source of comedy in movies when they say “DON’T OPEN THAT”! It’s the communal closet. You know the place I’m talking about. The inevitable black hole in the middle of your home that takes ninja-like skill to open and close the door.
Dare I say there may be more than one of these so-called storage refuses in your home. We attempt to de-clutter and organize one space and this typically resorts in cluttering another space, or just placing items in some closet where we can simply close the door to our mess. Out of sight, out of mind gives us the sense that our clutter problem is solved. The problem eventually becomes the mess we never address.
The question is why do so many have such a place in their home? Are we as a people all just hoarders in training or are we just inept at organizing. Although, I dare say some of us have an inability to let some things go, we just don’t have our homes or spaces set up for optimal storage. Optimization and organization are not typical innate qualities. They are learned skills at best.
So, what is a person to do knowing that we are not innately organizing beings?
First, take comfort in the fact that you are not alone. There is a world of those that black-belts in closet overload. Second, comes the realization that there are individuals who can help those of us who are not skilled in this area. They are the organization experts. They may not be able to tell you that those winter coats you no longer wear need to be given to those less fortunate or that it’s time for Jr.’s unused sports equipment to find a new home, but they can help you create a space to place them, just in case you ever need them again.
It’s safe to say that messy spaces are not something that leads to a happy simplistic life. There is a peace that comes from hanging up your ninja warrior outfit when it comes time to open the door of that communal closet.
