Things That Matter to Me, Part I: A Shopping Bag

 To commemorate four decades on this earth, I’m going to post some of my favorite possessions and the stories behind them. I typically don’t put a lot of stock in “stuff” because, as my late Aunt Nina used to say, “It’s just a thing.”

Also, i just moved into a new apartment and I feel overwhelmed with all the stuff I’ve accumulated. I need to purge some of it. So I thought it might be fun and useful to see and share what things really do matter to me.

I got this free shopping bag at a store in Kerala, India in 2012. I love it because of its authenticity. I have never found a good way to display it because I don’t like the idea of framing it.
