One half of life = learning, other half = deleting it / clearing the debris...
One half of life Learning and accumulating, then then other half of life trying to do practically something with it or even delete it / clearing the debris *without sympathy*...
It's practically and psychologically entangled / hard.
e.g. disks full, but glad I haven't bought another harddisk and still lowtech since I'd only do the same and fill those up too!)
