I liked your “follow your head” instead of your heart. But it’s hard to let go of your past that includes your house and your possessions.

...yes it is so hard. Once during a lean time with money I sold a lot of small things on ebay.... and now I so wish I had done one thing; TAKEN A PHOTO OF EVERY POSSESSION I SOLD and just kept in an album ... at the time I didn't have a camera that would download to computer but may I make this suggestion if you do.... if it interests you.. I think of some of the things I parted with and would like to just take on more look at them, even if it is a photo! Just a suggestion J.

@jip499 To be honest, I guess that's "preaching to the choir". I am having a lot of difficulties getting rid of things that give me so many happy memories. I think this is especially difficult because my son and daughter are so far away and we don't get to see them nearly as much as we would like. We generally see my son about 3 times a year, and my daughter perhaps a tiny bit more.
