Do you have a favorite food?  Something that you just LOVE to eat?  For me, that’s sushi.  It’s not that I don’t like popcorn. I do, but it doesn’t compare to sushi (eel has my heart).  I just don’t LOVE popcorn.

When we love something, we show that we value it by, in this case, consuming it as often as possible (though with my diet diet, sushi and I have had a distant relationship).  In other cases, we put the things we love in frames, on mantles, on our coffee tables, anywhere we can see, use, and enjoy them.  If it has very high value to us, we tend not to put them under the bed, on the highest shelf in the closet, in the basement…you get the picture.

So, the next time you have to decide whether to keep or get rid of something, ask yourself, “Is this sushi or popcorn?”
