I love this quote: “The freedom to choose graciousness is a freedom no one can take from us.” (John O’Donohue)
The things I collect: I'm trying to get rid of stuff at this phase of my life, but admit that I collect old things, from furniture to dish ware, to old dusters. Postcards from the past intrigue me.
Kert, I have to say I love your handwriting! I think of myself as a quote collector, but mine are on scraps of paper throughout the house, nothing as formal and beautiful as your common book. It is inspiring! But what do I really collect? Wow, you sure have a way of making me think. I collect experiences, but not thrill-seeking or luxury-vacation type experiences. More like everyday, "I hope I never forget this," kind of experiences. Walks in the neighborhood with my husband, lunch dates with friends, visits with my out-of-state boys, taking my parents to doctor appts. Mostly routine experiences. At least, that is what I intend to collect. I will be paying better attention now, thank you!

Thanks for posting, Kert.
Long ago I had a book I collected quotes in - I wonder where that has gone?
I am a collector of things including shoes - for me they can be like works of art👠

Love this! I collect moments. Thank you for the reminder to slow down and be present so I can keep collecting. Getting the duster out now! Oxox
