Precious possessions are the most important thing in your life, the one thing you couldn't live without Things you couldn't bear losing. Something you value more than anything else. Such precious things are important; they are valued above all else. It could be anything you treasure and hold dear to your heart; it could be worth millions or nothing at all. It may even appear irrelevant to others because it has no value for them. When I ask myself, "What is my most valuable possession?" I discover that it has evolved. My father's teddy bear was my most prized possession as a child, my diary as an adolescent, and my car and smartphone in the latter half of my twenties. At the moment, I have many prized possessions, including materialistic items like earlier and a few relationships that became valuable later. Other non-tangible treasures were among my current most prized possessions. What I want to emphasize here is that valuable possessions lose their special status as time passes. As I previously stated, my prized possessions have changed over the course of my life. Age, gender, financial situation, surrounding people, and education, in my opinion, have an impact on the valuation of things or relationships and contribute to determining whether those are most treasured or not. Photographs of children are among the most prized possessions of parents all over the world. My parents bought a new DSLR camera when I was a baby to capture and treasure my childhood memories. Looking through my childhood photos makes my parents nostalgic. My parents gave me some of the photographs they took. These photographs are very close to my heart. According to Daphne du Maurier's famous prized possession quote, "Happiness is not a possession to be prized; it is a quality of thought, a state of mind." He does not regard happiness as a valuable possession. However, I have opposing views on this and have included them in my list. If happiness, according to him, is a state of mind, then that "state of mind" is a prized possession.
