Erika, great metaphor. Did you ever see the movie “Wild” with Reese Witherspoon? She played the real life Cheryl Strayed who hiked the Pacific Coast Trail on her own to honor her mother. There is a scene early on where her backpack weights 75 lbs. because the store salesman sold her too much stuff. She comes across an experienced hiker who helps her pare down the backpack in a rather humorous scene. He asked her if she read a paper back book – if she had, he tosses the book. If she read thirty pages, he rips out those pages. Keith
