I treat it as a consumer education paradigm that advocates for Repair not Replace.
My grandmother treasures a love token, a pen, given by my grandfather to remember his love.
My parents keep my stamped footprint to celebrate their only childs born.
I collect all the gifts from my friends to cherish our friendship.
These objects help us know ourselves.
They confirm our values.
If we continue detaching objects and randomly dumping things, we may lose ourselves one day.
Keeping things is retaining our humanity.
