New stuff

We buy stuff. It's new. We love it. We use it. We grow. We outgrow. We no longer love it. Our eye catches a glimpse of a shiny new object. We buy it. It's new. We love it.

Whether we talk about actual physical stuff, or ideas, or patterns, whatever else, when the old stops working for us, we crave something new, different, exciting. Something that will now serve our present, instead of who we were in the past. Maybe that's why they call gifts "presents."
