And? We all have our little rituals and amulets to make us feel safe. Decades ago, people used to purchase and collect Rabbit’s Feet on a keychain ‘for good luck’. The hard, bony feet were dyed all sorts of different colors.
I had a blue rabbits foot and a switchblade I usually kept in my levi pockets. When you think about it, the Rabbit’s Foot didn’t make any sense, did it? But we gave it what you call
‘intrinsic value’, meaning we decided to bestow a value on it.
Rabbit’s for had intrinsic value to the rabbit. Who knows, they might make them of polyester now.
I had a beloved stuffed giraffe about 9 inches high that my mother threw out when I was six because I was “too old” for it. Mommy Dearest. King Chuck had far more sensitive nannies. His own toilet seat is fine with me and probably his own TP.
