And Honoring Them, Sentimentally.
For the severely sentimental, saving memorabilia is a no-brainer. Whether it's a post-it with an uninspiring reminder, a lame fortune from the local Chinese take-out, or the cotton stuffing from your first teddy bear, sentimentality knows no bounds. That is, until you meet an anti-sentimentalist, whose approach to the past is as unforgiving and incoherent as the unpromising fortune. To coexist is to find meaning in the mundane while feigning indifference as you slip scraps into your back pocket, until later, when you can privately add them to your growing collection of (in)significant moments. Enjoy!
