I hold most dear, mainly personal belongings that I have received from people special to me and certain personal belongings that come from certain locations but the personal belonging itself isn’t that important but the memories behind them.
I have three rings that I consider very important, due to receiving them from my loved ones. One ring is from my Mum that I’ve had for at least seven or eight years, the two other rings are from my sister which I received last year. Because these are the first rings I have gotten from my family, they are very special to me.
My other special personal belonging is a toy I’d had since childhood, its a dragon from Harry Potter called Norbert. He is quite neglected and he hasn’t been cared for that well, even now I know his in my room somewhere but I’m not sure where, ha but I know that I’d be incredibly upset, even as an adult, if I lost him, he reminds me so much of my childhood that I can’t get rid of him.
Something that are special because they also remind me the most of my childhood are these trolls I used to collect. I have a picture of one of them up above but mine our dressed ha! I used to collect them as a child, I don’t collect them anymore and they also no longer popular so I don’t see them around much, I have quite a lot of them in my room. I probably could get rid of some but I do have my favourites that I know I never want to part with because of the memories playing with those trolls specifically as a child.
If I see an unusual one, I might get it though, just because of the nostalgia XD
I also have specific keyring that are special to me, not because of the keyring itself but the locations where they are from and when I look at them they really help me recall certain special holidays a lot more clearly.
So yeah, from gifts I received from special people in my life, to personal belongings coming from special locations, or holding special memories of my childhood, these are why and how something becomes important to me. This is what I value.
