Nothing can resist the power of time, not even a piece of metal or a block of brick. And while people usually consider brand new objects to be valuable, there is actually an emotional worth to worn-out things that make them all the more precious. After all, as time transforms our belongings, and even our face and body, each little change becomes a mark that reflects the memories of our life.
