35 Objects Worn Down Over Time Tell An Entire Story In One Picture
I have a pen that I’ve been using since college. It was a gift from my grandfather, so I love it very much and refill it whenever the ink gets low.
After all these years it is so worn down where I hold it, it looks like it could snap in half. I’ll still keep it long after it breaks.
All of these objects worn down over time tell a similar story in a single picture. They’ve gotten so much use over the years you can see the time they’ve put in.
