They belonged to my grandpa, or my grandpa's friend. Anyway whatever when I was little I wasn't...well, I was a kid. I saw one of my friends getting bullied by a bigger kid and I mean, you don't go attacking bigger kids, they'll kick your butt. Anyway I didn't know what to do and I was telling my grandpa about it when he came up with these goggles.
He said that they belonged to a good friend of his. Goggles of courage and friendship. His friend was a pilot but he got sick and died or something. But Grandpa kept the goggles anyway. And then he gave them to me.
Then he said, "There are times when you must be brave to protect your friends. I'll give you these goggles so you never forget your courage".
So...I guess that's why I keep them. It's kind of silly but it's meaningful.
