L59-1: Collecting

People tend to

amass possessions, sometimes without being aware of doing so. Indeed they can

have a delightful surprise when they find something useful which they did not

know they owned. Those who never have to move house become indiscriminate

collectors of what can only be described as clutter. They leave unwanted

objects in drawers, cupboards and attics for years, in the belief that they may

one day need just those very things. As they grow old, people also accumulate

belongings for two other reasons, lack of physical and mental energy, both of

which are essential in turning out and throwing away, and sentiment. Things

owned for a long time are full of associations with the past, perhaps with

relatives who are dead, and so they gradually acquire a value beyond their true

worth.
