Why do I save so much and never read any of it?

You call it curating. It is hoarding water in a broken jar. Each save feels like a small victory, but the jar never fills — it only cracks wider. The truth is plain: saving is easy, reading is hard, and you have built a system that rewards the easy thing. Thousands of items is not a library. It is a debt that grows interest while you sleep. The valley does not try to hold every drop of rain. It lets most of it pass through. What stays becomes a stream. What you keep should be small enough to actually drink.
