Could this be the end?

Tentatively I wait for some form of contact from the Official Receiver's office. It is now been 29 days since they notified my creditors of their intention to discharge me early from the bankruptcy.

I wonder if any of them have objected to an early discharge? I wonder if I will be discharged early?

Thoughts processes have begun in my mind which help me see the end of the mental debtors prison I have put myself in. I am beginning to think about rebuilding my life and moving on from this perceived place of poverty. Whilst I don't want to get my hopes up for an early discharge, I secretly hanker after the freedom from the shameful feelings and poverty of spirit this process brings.

Watch this space.

RE: Your Affairs in Bankruptcy

Another letter from the officially Receiver today with the above mentioned title. The letter was enclosing a copy Summary of Receipts and payments which includes a notice to my creditors of the Official Receiver's intentions to apply for release as Trustee of my estate.

This is really good news because it means that the Official Receiver has conclude their administration of my estate and that they want to apply for my early discharge.

If none of my creditors object then the earliest date that the Official Receiver can apply my for my discharge is 28th September 2005, which is 28 weeks and 5 days since being declared bankrupt. If one of the creditors objects and this is found to be without merit the the earliest date will be 12th October 2005.

This has given me a lot of hope and I am now beginning to see release from the debtors prison I had entered in my mind. I know things could still go wrong yet I remain positively optimistic.

By the way today will be 26 weeks since bankruptcy.
