Our parent's generation would pass the books to their younger siblings, cousins, and friends. Somehow that stopped and overconsumption became normal. I think this is the right time to bring back the traditions of goving away old books to the younger ones

I share this feeling with you. We always seek if there is a way to ease someone's struggle. That is why we store things. We do not hoard them. I too had kept my chemistry notes for juniors which I handed over when studies ended. I felt deep sense of relief

This is such a beautiful reminder that the true value of knowledge lies not in possessing it but in passing it on to someone who needs it. ❤️ Your journey with these books is especially touching because you understood the struggles of being the first person in your family to choose a different academic path. Instead of allowing those difficulties to end with you, you turned your experience into an opportunity to make someone else’s journey easier. The fact that you kept those books safe for so many years, hoping they would eventually reach the right hands, makes this story even more meaningful. And knowing that they finally reached a medical student who needed them must have been an incredibly fulfilling feeling. Sometimes, we leave behind a legacy not through wealth or grand achievements but through the opportunities we create for others. You didn’t simply donate old books; you passed on knowledge, hope, and the possibility of a better future. May those books help their new owner achieve wonderful things! 🌸📚

I believe they must have already achieved their goal by now
