A Group of Bags

Once upon a time — actually, it was the first day of the 2025 school year. It was a Monday morning, and I saw a group of kids happily walking, looking excited as they made their way to school. What caught my eye was that all of them were carrying bags from the DonnaCerila brand — each one in a different design and style, made in different years.

Some bags looked freshly made, while others were already two years old. But there was one thing they all had in common — they were all still in great condition. You could hardly tell which ones were new and which ones had been used for a while.

Then I learned something heartwarming: a few of those bags had been passed down or donated to cousins, simply because they still looked so nice and were perfectly usable. It was such a beautiful moment — seeing those colorful DonnaCerila bags being reused with pride, realizing how they were part of the children’s excitement in going back to school.
