Does that make any sense?

Yes, it certainly does make sense! Let's use a Coach Bag for analogy, shall we? When you first bring home your Coach Bag from the mall, the leather is all shiny and bright and it has that good new-leather smell and you're all excited because you have this brand new Coach Bag and it's all yours! Over time, the leather loses the new smell, the color isn't as bright, the contours of the bag change subtly to accommodate the way you carry it. Its not shiny new anymore and maybe you don't get that "OMG, I can't believe I have this incredible new Coach Bag" feeling every time you see it, but you love it just as much as you did the first day you brought it home. Not only because of what attracted you to it in the first place, but because it is YOURS!
