1. “I always carry my late grandfather’s old bracelet with me, especially when I’m going for an important work. It makes me feel like he’s with me.” -Anonymous

3. “I still have the first rose my then-boyfriend and now-husband gave me twenty years ago. I have kept it in a book and whenever we are going through an argument, I take a look at that rose which reminds me of our last twenty years of happiness.” -Shruti Joshi
4. “My mom got me a friendship band when I was little because we were not allowed to share bands at school. I still have it, and that meant a lot to me. Also, a nice gesture to want to turn a friend – especially when it comes from a strict mother.” -Manya Ailawadi
5. “In 2016, a friend of mine invited me to his house to celebrate Eid. Being a pure vegetarian, his mother specially cooked vegetarian biriyani for me and gave me eidi. Even though we aren’t on talking terms right now, I have that ₹100 note with me that she gave me as eidi.” -Anonymous
6. “I have kept my first-ever flight ticket with me. It was a family vacation to Kashmir in 2013.” -Anonymous

It’s adorable how such tiny things play an important role in our lives.
