Recently, we had a big fire near where I live, and I had to pack up my car in case I was ordered to evacuate. Once I had packed everything that mattered, I went back inside to watch the news, and when I walked in my front door, I thought to myself, "If everything that matters is out in the car, what's all this stuff?"

Once the fire was out, I spent about ten days decluttering my entire apartment. As DRCny said, it was addictive. I put my hands on everything I own--everything in every drawer, in every closet, in every box--and decided whether it meant something to me. I feel so much lighter now! Everything is organized and easy to find. And, sure, it's not like all that's left is the stuff I would take if I had to evacuate. But I can honestly say that everything in my apartment is something I want to have here. It's a great feeling!
