​“Do not be alarmed; you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He has been raised; he is not here.” – Mark 16:6
 
My family and I have been spending the last few weeks performing what could be akin to “Swedish death cleaning.” That is not the best phrase, right? But it is apropos. It comes from the Swedish word, döstädning, which gives us this literal translation – death cleaning. The idea is simple, as we get older in life, we accumulate a lot of things - clothes, books, craft supplies, tools, music, and on and on. What the Swedes have tried to share, which is similar to the work of Marie Kondo, is to strip away from ourselves the clutter we have collected in order to relieve that burden from our spouse or children upon our death. (Point of clarification – I don’t believe any of us are near death…) A little morbid, I know, but it seems to work and be necessary at times. You look at an item and wonder, “Will someone miss this? Will someone see in this a memory of me? Would they want it now, rather than finding it after I am gone?” All good questions. In so doing, we clear out things we have held onto that are not useful for memories or joyful living, and instead you get to pass on those things to those who may love them now.
