That’s the beauty of chocolate: not only does it make for a fine, metaphorical flotation device, but it is consumable. A moment and it is gone. Not like all that other stuff.
I am SO curious. Were you sorting in preparation for packing?? Or is this your normal filing system? Seriously, I once counted how many times I moved and it was more than 30 times in 40 years. So, I can relate, although my penchant for pulling up stakes does tend to minimize collecting stuff I don’t need and will never use. Nothing like a move to clean out the excess stuff – it’s really kind of freeing.
Not sure I should honor your request for chocolate, it doesn’t look like you have room for it!

Hey, I thought you didn’t believe in metaphor. (Is there anything in the skip yet?)

Don’t forget wine. You’ll need both to make it through. You can do it!
