Hidden Stories in Forgotten Things

on process

(2025)


On a restless morning, weighed down by a troubled mind, I found myself yearning for something positive to do. I decided to tackle the forgotten clutter in my room—items I had tucked away since my university days in 2016. What began as a simple cleaning task soon turned into an unexpected journey down memory lane. Each abandoned object, once destined for the trash, revealed itself as a precious memento, sparking vivid recollections of moments long past.


Instead of discarding them, I found myself cherishing these things in my life, transforming what I once called “junk” into a heartfelt collection of memories—a personal work of junk journaling that celebrates the beauty hidden in the ordinary and the stories etched in every forgotten thing.
