Essays and photos: "The Saddest Thing I Own"

"The Saddest Thing I Own" is a site where people are invited to submit images of photos, mementos, and other reminders of things that make them sad.

"The Saddest Thing I Own" invites people everywhere to share the saddest thing they own. What are these sad things? What makes things sad? Do things start off sad? Do some sad things begin as happy things that then become sad? Are some things only sad because for some sad reason we kept them? Are some things just plain sad no matter what? This is what we want to know.
