Time takes its toll on everyone and everything. Everything changes over time. This is just a fact of life, albeit a kind of sad one. Sometimes things change so slowly and in such minor ways that no one even realizes it until the thing is too far gone. The changes are there, but they are only noticed when compared to the original, new product. It's interesting to see how things change over time and with use.

Everything from the obvious things like shoes and hats from the more peculiar things like staircases and keys wear down with time. All it takes is a little bit of observation to see just how much time changes things. These images might inspire some people to look closer at the things they use every day to notice how they have altered from their original state.

Take a moment to see some items, structures, objects, and other things that have worn down over time. It's interesting to see how normal wear and tear can take something from brand new, to worn in.
