My senses.
I like things that are tangible. One of my favorite senses besides seeing is, the ability to feel. It allows me to appreciate things more and feel what's authentic and what's not. I like things. I like souvenirs that I can take out of a box and touch. While I am very grateful for the age of technology, I appreciate print newspapers. I like books. I like magazines. I like physical pictures. Those things can't be lost of a computer crashes or if electricity for some reason ceases to exist. I love the tangible. I like the feeling of feeling. Of holding, of touching. I like the feeling of having. Of having something to hold and reminisce. I save all my birthday/Christmas cards. I love them all. Especially the ones with personal written messages. I love them. I love my New York Times paper with the first family on the cover, the night Obama won the 2008 election. I love that I didn't sell it. I love that I have it, to show my kids. I need to frame it.
