Where is the sentimentality?

I can't understand how people can throw away certain things.  In this case I'm not referring to 'stuff' as such, but rather things that people make, build, draw with their own hands.  I could never toss out my own creations, let alone anybody else's that were passed onto me.  It's absurd and heartbreaking!

Amongst other things on somebody's junk pile, I found this hand (ink) drawn bird.  Written on it - My Objective Drawing - Grey Herron - 15.2.94.  

I think it's strikingly elegant.  'Astral Mansfield' had and may still have a lovely gift and I hope she's still drawing today.
