Of all the things I decided not to keep, books were the most difficult to give away.
All of those books contain so much information, so much knowledge, that it is terribly sad to be throwing all of it out. I didn't actually thrown them out, but rather am giving them away. Hopefully they will serve someone else.
They represent a huge investment of money, time, brain capacity and thought... and sadly, I have forgotten almost all of the information.
Of course it is convenient that we can store all of that information of an object the size of one's hand, but the feeling of a physical book is something that I do not think can easily be replaced.
