那些没用却舍不得扔的东西，我们为何收藏
Almost everyone keeps a few objects that serve no practical purpose. A ticket stub from a concert, a smooth stone from a beach, a birthday card from years ago. We know we will never use them, yet throwing them away feels strangely wrong.
几乎每个人都会留着几样毫无实用价值的东西：一场音乐会的票根、海边捡来的一块光滑石头、多年前的一张生日卡。我们知道自己永远用不上它们，可扔掉时又莫名地觉得不对劲。
These objects are not really about their material. They are anchors for memory. A concert ticket is thin paper, but it holds an entire evening: the crowd, the music, the person who stood beside you. The object becomes a small door back into a moment.
这些东西真正在意的其实不是它的材质，而是它作为记忆的锚点。一张演唱会门票不过是薄薄一张纸，却装着整整一个夜晚：人群、音乐，还有站在你身旁的那个人。那件物品，成了通往某个瞬间的一扇小门。
