Destroy your sigils?, Do you or don't you? Options

This has been a hot topic among some of the area sigilizers in my town.
Do people here destroy their sigils after their "mission" has been completed?
I have always felt that when the goal has been acheived that I should destroy the sigil that i created. If it is one i am especially proud of I might take a picture or a scan before disposing of it. If their is not a clear end to it purpose(as in perhaps ("this sigil is to encourage my creative nature") I will keep it. IF it has an end to it's use (this sigil is to aid in the acquirement of "specific object or idea") i will burn it when this goal is acheived. Afterwards I feel that the sigil and it's energy is then cleared for my mind. In some ways it works as both a physical and mental banishment, leaving my mind clear for new projects. Ultimately I think anyone can do whatever they want with their sigils but I am wondering what members here do?

I think some people need to remember the origin of sigil magick, and that is chaos magick. And the maxim of chaos magick is still "Nothing is true, everything is permitted"

Sorry, but this isnt true. Spare revitalised Sigil magic at the turn of the 20th century, and even then it wasnt totally his idea and had been taught to him by his teacher. Spare 'sexed' up the process by adding in a contempory approach to it based on Freuds work and other such psychological theories. Sigil magic is very ancient. The Kaos paradigm started in the mid 70's and Carroll again made Sigils popular as he was very interested in 'Results Magic', which was the original name for Chaos Magic, and Sigils were very effective for results.

And Carroll was playing a trick on the reader of his books by using the maxim, "Nothing is true, everything is permitted", as Chaos should hold to NO maxims at all! Even this statement is dogma that can hinder the mage. Other tricks by Carroll include Monasticism, which is totally rediculus if you understand CMT.
