    March 2 is Old Stuff Day. It is all about old things. You have forgotten your used old things in your home for years. You must have some old things around. And today is all about enjoying them. Because what's better than finding something really great from old things?

    It's so easy to forget things you have. If we don't use them every day, some things can be stored and stay there. And that's not just the things in your home-technology grows so quickly, new toys come out all the time, new books keep coming out. In the age of new information, we can have so many things easily. Today is all about remembering the things we sometimes leave behind.

    We've learned to value what age can bring to things. Wines(酒), for example, are more valuable and delicious as they grow older. It's certain that old things still have their uses, value or charm(魅力). People today will pay some money for stamps, toys, video games, board games, books, coins, and clothes of yesterday.

    You can really get into the charm of old things by visiting a junk shop. Another person's old things could be your new things! Or maybe now is a good day to clean up? Old things could become a great gift for someone else, or you could always give your old things to a charity(慈善)shop. If you're free, you could turn your old clothes into new ones with just a little change.

    Most of all, remember that today's new things will one day be old things.
