I can so relate to this thread as I'm going through it now. I started preparing for the move last summer and I'm finding the more I sort through the keep pile the smaller it gets. I keep asking myself with every item, do I really need this? When is the last time you used it? If there's any hesitation in the answer I am tossing it.
Its so very hard to get rid of things and I can't let emotions and memoires get in the way. I keep repeating to myself yes I'm losing so much now, but there's so much joy and happiness to be gained in my new life without these material possessions.
