when i visit my sister's house she was busy cleaning and i notice that she is throwing some slippers that are still useful, then i ask her "why throw pairs of slippers that are still useful?",. then she just smile at me and answered "they are already old" i didnt have the reason of throwing something that is useful because it is old...

Some people are just wasteful I guess. I hate throwing anything away and try to find a new use for it. I have made some beautiful things such as bird feeders out of old dishes. I made my dog a new bed out of 2 torn pillows and a sheet that was ripped. I just don't see the use in making more trash in this world if you can avoid it.

If they are still in good condition, I will still wear them till they are worn out. I have some pairs of shoes that I don't wear to work, but I wear them back home after work or when I go to take exercises in the evening when I don't have to go to the office to work. I place them outside my door usually.

I think its a tendency of many people to get rid of old things.we should use any article upto its optimum level.and in case if we feel bored of anything we can give it to any needy person.or we can change the use and be creative as our friends are ;).but wastage is really very poor thing.throwing something out merely because you are bored or they are old depicts your irresponsible behaviour.
