It bothers me how unwilling people are also to give things up. Thanks to the difficult lesson taught by computer viruses wiping out all of my music, writings and pictures (though I am sure you could never compare that to the extremity of a house of possessions burning down) I have realized that nothing is safe from suddenly vanishing. This puts into perspective the real worth of items...if they can be as easily lost as found, then why bother stacking up? If people are so cruelly willing to slim down and cut away their friendships and relationships (a truly odd and disgusting habit in my opinion) then I cannot understand why they are unable to let material items go.
