Blog challenge Day 26

Today’s prompt: What do you collect?

In the past few years I’ve really started to get rid of things. To have less t

materialistic stuff around. I was never much of a a big collector of many things. I did collect porcelain dolls for a while but as of right now, I would have to say I’m collecting pictures and memories.

I know that may sound cheesy – I want my kids and my grandkids and my great great great great great grandkids to have pictures of everything that life was when I was living.

Hopefully with these pictures that I’m saving will help to tell a story and it will help to have my family remember me. For my kids I hope that they will keep the pictures, always bringing happy memories.

I know my kids often resist when I want to snap pictures and I kick myself when I don’t take a million pictures. Really though,one day pictures are all we’re going to have. Pictures and memories. Memory is sometimes hard to rely on and pictures are great because they really do tell us a story that sometimes even a memory just can’t.

So definitely now as I try to downsize and try to hold on to as little amount of material things as possible I really really am happy to be snapping pictures all the time. Creating folders of pictures that I will have for hopefully years to come that I can pass on.

To me right now in life that just seems like the most important thing that I can collect and keep to pass down to my family.

What about you? What do you collect ?

I love hearing about people’s collections. I know people that collect rocks, sea glass, motorcyles. I know eople that collect coffee mugs, heck I people that collect dust bunnies LOL okay well I guess maybe I collect those also!!

Until next time my friends be kind to yourself and look out for others.
