Getting rid of "stuff" is a very free feeling - less clutter is best physically and mentally. Yes, pictures and the memories in your mind are enough sometimes. When we moved here we got rid of 99% of the stuff - had one sorta regret and that was selling a steamer trunk that had been in the family. For some reason that kind of bothers me still but then I think of the couple who bought it. The gentleman he had served in the armed forces and wanted the trunk to store his service items - every time I think of it, it reinforces we made the right choice to sell it at a reasonable price to someone who totally deserved the piece.
