The trait mentioned is how we take people for granted.
- The question has been asked from the story The Address by Marga Minco.
- When her mother's possessions were at her own home, the narrator paid little attention to them.
- After the war, Mrs Dorling had taken with her many valuable items of the author's mother. Then only the narrator noticed the missing items.
- This statement is said by the narrator to illustrate how we tend to undervalue and take things for granted, only realising their absence after they are gone.
- She had lost both her mother and her mother's possessions as a result of the war, therefore the remark might be seen as mocking.
- She recognised the items that were left at Dorling's residence. Even her green sweater was still on. She experienced nostalgia since things seemed to have lost their value without their true owner.
- She felt her mother's absence as an adult, just as she did when she was a child and only had her mother's possessions.
