Thread: Emotional Attachments to Stuff

All of my SRP Posts. I don't know what I would do if anything happened to them.

You would have to start posting allllll over again like many of us had to do during "the great SRP crash" of January 2008. I lost maybe 400 posts back then, others lost more! It was like the depression.

There's something worth being attached to.

Typically I've sat here and written a dozen different answers to a question that actually should not be that difficult to answer. I think of all the stuff I've got, and all the things that would be difficult to replace or never be the same even if I did, you can't take any of it with you anyway so it's my memories.

I could live with out the stuff, and get nostalgic over it and miss it, but ultimately while I still had the memory it would still stir some emotion in me when ever I happened to think of it. It's the memories attributed to these things that grant them value, so they are the things I am deeply attatched to.
