Clutter Is More Than Embarrassing, It's Dangerous

Having clutter in your house is perfectly normal.
If you are a human being, you're going to accumulate "stuff".
But when it begins to pile up it becomes a problem.
For instance, if you can't quickly access an exit door or window during a fire, it could cost your life (or the life of a loved one).
When seconds count and you need to find medication (for asthma or heart problems), clutter could delay you just long enough to lead to deadly consequences.
If the babysitter needs to find emergency phone numbers right away, but is met with a mound of disorganized papers...
I think you get the idea.
