“We need to determine if we’re actually getting value from a memento from a relationship or if we’re hanging on to the memento to remember a past relationship.”
“Saving mementos from failed relationships is like burning down a building and keeping a piece of charred wood from the aftermath.”
“Our memories are inside us, not inside our things.”
“Don’t let the past get in the way of a meaningful future."

Really interesting discussion lads, I think many of us are guilty of these thoughts, feelings or actions. It's a complex issue when we're trying to understand our own feelings or emotions; trying to make sense of them when they are attached to things from our past can be quite difficult. Really enjoying the Patreon eps so far though!
