Collection or Crap?

Filed under: Let's Get Organized

A lot of people say they have collections (especially of paper), when really they just have crap. Can’t tell the difference?

A collection is (thank you Dictionary.com): a group of objects or an amount of material accumulated in one location, esp. for some purpose or as a result of some process.

Crap is stuff that just hasn’t been thrown out yet.

Don’t know which is yours?

When you die, the things grouped and categorized into a collection will make sense and/or have meaning to others. And if when you die people have no idea what all this stuff they now have to deal with is, then it’s crap.
