Oh the joy in being able to sweep away
all bothersome items swirling in my mind.
(I started to use the word "brain"
until making a fascinating side trip into
 the definition of mind.)
 I have found that, within reason,
those bothersome items can sometimes
lead to new growth and hints of maturity.
If I follow Emerson's advice,
I will chuck those old notebooks/(nonsense?)
I keep promising myself to go through
to glean potential material
for current writing projects.
That being said, 
I appreciate the
spirit of his words.
