I keep my grandpa's hand carving tools. Friends call it a waste, I call it therapy. Should we ditch old hobbies or save them?

Okay, but hear me out. Sentimental or not, if you're not carving anything, it's basically just clutter. Therapy's great, but so is having a clean garage.

Why do people call something a waste if it brings you peace? Those tools connect you to your grandpa and give you a quiet focus most never find. Keep them, because real therapy is hard to find and yours is already in your hands.

Did they miss the part where peace is actually priceless? Guess some folks just like to yell about stuff that's none of their business.

Remembered my buddy Joe kept his dad's old leather punch set for years, said it felt like having his dad's hand on his shoulder.
