I get a little sad when i see a place demolished
I usually get a little sad feeling when I see a place being demolished.
It really makes me sad to see a house demolished, particularly if it's a beautiful one with nothing really wrong with it (for example, a row of gorgeous, well built, beautifully maintained houses were demolished in my city to make way for a freaking IHOP, CVS, and other businesses, and it was such a shame). I wonder about all of the memories that were created there, how it was someone's home at one point and was probably really loved and cherished. I can't stand the thought of it happening to my house or either of my childhood homes.
Even with commercial buildings, especially ones I've spent a lot of time at in the past or have been a big part of my hometown forever, it's a bit sad as well. Certain ones must be full of memories, some even full of history.
I know structures are really just shells, but it's still a bit saddening. I also know sometimes demolition is necessary, but hate watching it.
I also hate driving past semis carrying crushed cars, because I always think about how at one point those cars were someone's brand new car they were extremely proud of. I can't stand the thought of my car ever being like this, either (as I really love my car and it has a lot of sentimental value since it was a gift from a family member).
