Collections

Why is it that people collect things? Is it something that is engrained in them in childhood or is it something that develops over time? I’m not really sure what the correct answer is, or if there’s a correct answer, but it is something that I wonder about.

In my house we currently collect and have collected in the past a number of things. We’ve collected model Volkswagen Beetles, Madame Alexandra dolls, shoe figurines, and more recently Disney pins and Disney vinylmation figurines. At our house we collect because we want to and because it’s fun. It’s something to do and something to bond over. And I’m sure that someday we’ll have something else that we collect.
