This is my reaction as well.

The secret of my success is that I forced myself not to think about it too much! I condone your approach of not ascribing too much meaning to things. Many of the objects highlighted aren't of any great significance to me (or haven't been since I was a child) and persist mainly due to inertia. The piles of comic books by my bed are just library books I happen to have on loan now, I haven't even read the ones at the top yet (though they are due back today, so I probably will have by the time you read this). The books in my bookshelf are mostly the ones I like/read the least, with ones I love in a different bookcase in my living room. The artwork "Christ Head" above my bed is something my dad made as a teenager, and neither of us are religious; in fact, it's an optical illusion: viewed upside down, it depicts a woman sitting in a giant bird nest. My room probably implies other things that I'm too close to recognise… but those are a few details I felt like sharing that probably aren't obvious just from looking.
