There’s so much left behind when someone you love dies.

Many people will tell you what you should and shouldn't do with your loved one's belongings.

Here’s the thing…you don’t have to decide today. Or this year. Or ever, if you’re not ready.

"If it brings you comfort…keep it.
If it doesn’t…you’re allowed to let it go."

Just remember that whatever you chose to do, (or not do) is totally up to you.

Follow your heart.
