I Deleted Over 5,000 Old e-mails Today, and I’m Starting Fresh

I needed to get control of that mess

Today I had to purge the mess I called e-mail

Specifically, my Medium e-mail account.

I think the world of all my Medium friends, writers, readers, highlighters, and commenters.

I love you, my e-mail subscribers.

But I had to get rid of that overwhelming bag of heavy rocks.

I will never catch up with thousands of e-mails/stories that I am so far behind on.

I discussed this with Tai Le Grice because he had the same problem.

He said he was going to delete all the old ones.

I was mortified!

If I did that, I might miss something!

I would be dissing some of my pals.

But, wait…..

Tai Le Grice was right to do that, and he gave me the push I needed.

Thanks, Tai!

I was dissing them anyway because I would never get to those e-mails from months ago.
