I tend to be a pack rat in general, so I still have a lot of stuff from my childhood, including a lot of more sentimental things than my Pokemon card collection. But I realize that if I think about it, Pokemon has played a pretty significant role in my life, and has been a constant as the rest of my world has changed. Having enjoyed Pokemon for about 2/3 of my life, first as a social pursuit and then as solitary form of relaxation, I can't really imagine what my life would have been like without it.
