उत्तर
Sometimes, we get attached to materialistic things that we hold close to our heart, like a gift from a loved one or something you really love with all your heart. We often find these things around us all the time. If we do not find them, or if the stop functioning, it causes us pain, because we tend to get emotionally attached to that personal item and start loving it, just like people love each other. These personal things hold a lot of sentimental value to us and we cannot even thing about not having them with us. For example, if a doll was gifted to a girl by her father, she could attached to the doll and hold sentimental value for it as it was given to her by someone who loved and cared for her. If the girl grew up and was asked to separate from the doll, it could be difficult for her to do so, as she held the sentimental value of the doll close to her heart and if she separated from the doll, she could feel like she was separating from something she loved truly with her heart.
So, people often find it to be difficult to part with personal items that have a sentimental value attached to them.
