Nope.
It was hard, but letting it all go was the start of a revelation for me.

@OogieBoogie very cool stuff :)
@popmol not sure I would say cool .
Change is painful ....so is loss.

Forced Great change and great loss is beyond the words I can think of to describe it.

It was a make or break type thing.

You imagine walking away from everything you have - or will have ? EVERYTHING : clothes, home, belongings, heirlooms, hopes, dreams...?

It's probably the hardest thing I've ever done.

@OogieBoogie the revelation was the cool stuff if it helped!

aah in my case i constantly think about death so maybe its different as its a permanent easy solution to every wordly problem.
Most of my fear came from having something and maintaining it! absolutely terrifying that is!
@popmol the revelation is that change is inevitable - and that we can't base ourselves on what we have/own/keep.

The more we have ....the more we want ....the more we spend time over trying to keep 'it' , or upgrading to better 'its'.

When so many of those 'its' mean nothing in the long run🤷
