Years from now, when all the junk they got is broken and long forgotten, you'll still have your stars.
In her memoir "The Glass Castle," Jeannette Walls emphasizes the fleeting nature of material possessions through a poignant quote about valuing experiences over things. The essence of the quote suggests that material belongings may become discarded and insignificant with time, but the meaningful memories we create, symbolized by 'stars,' endure long after the physical items are gone. This perspective encourages readers to focus on what truly matters in life.
