  Why do we tend to keep things that we'll never use? I was going through my drawers today and I came across all sorts of things that really have no value in keeping.
For example, back in 8th grade I went to the fair with my friends and I played a ring toss game and I won a little stuffed bird. This is something I found in my drawer. I understand why I kept it for a month but 4 years? That's a little insane.
The memory is great but the bird in the bottom of my drawer isn't making me remember it. So why don't we throw all these personal tidbits away? Even as I looked at the bird and thought it was pointless to keep it I hesitated to throw it away. There were other things in there like a broken bracelet that i'll never fix, a little keychain that my cousin gave to me for my 10th birthday and such things like that.
I ended up throwing most everything away except a few that I still hold more of an attachment to. But even now I feel so empty with out my tidbits. That's it I'm going to cry now. I want my bird back. Today went nice, I don't know why I wore that skirt though. Such a bother.
