I know my clutter is a barrier, that I have put in place. But why have I built this barrier. If I had a friend who had done this, I would offer to help them remove the barrier. Maybe I need to be my own friend and do just that! I think I too, like you now value open spaces more than things.

I can relate. Tend to expand to the space available. Found that most of my space provided storage for things I haven’t used for decades or merely places to dust that no longer functioned for me. My family is fully launched and I live alone. Thought a lot about my space needs and not those of social conventions. Really just wanted a library/studio with adjoining bedroom, kitchen, and a bathroom. Found a place less than half the size of my old one and was able to renovate to my curated needs. Very content here - my first home just for me.
