People love to count things because it helps them make sense of the world. When you count, you feel like you're taking control, like you’re organizing chaos into numbers and patterns. Imagine counting your toys: one by one, they become a group. It’s fun! Counting turns messy piles into neat groups, and that makes people happy.
Examples
