Why wear?

To the awakened eye, the worn and used shows how "[t]hings are either devolving to, or evolving from, nothingness."

In the worn tool or utensil, there is also the dimension of beings who have come to the object, used it, and passed on.

In the living world, beings intersect with the physical world, pushing it, piece by piece, along the path while, themselves, also evolving and devolving.

In physical world, motion arises from falling water, gravity, heat and cold, plays the same role, and passes on.
