Emotional Attachments to Stuff
I first got this American Bridge structural steel erectors belt when I was an apprentice around 1970. I used this belt and the tools hanging on it to erect structural steel for twenty years. I was disabled for ironwork back around '89 and hung the belt up but I have never been able to give it up. A lot of memories go with it. Some pocket knives, guns and straight razors share the same emotional attachment. We all have loved ones, some are still with us, some are passed away. The attachment remains. Anyone else have 'things' not people, that they are emotionally attached to ?
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
