My minimalist cleanup forced a tough choice with childhood toys

I decided to minimize my home and started with the basement. I found a box of my old childhood toys, like action figures and board games. They're broken and dusty, but they remind me of happy times. I don't have kids to pass them to, and they just sit there. Throwing them out feels like throwing away memories. Donating them might give them new life, but it's still hard. This tough choice has slowed my progress. I'm curious how others deal with sentimental clutter.

My Lego city in the basement took forever to sort out.

Took forever? You're doing it wrong.

Nah, sorting Legos is pretty fast once you get going.
