I decided that I am going to start physically collecting something. I have lived 33 years of life and not settled on anything until just recently. I have noticed that I love to admire cake stands (not the cheesy seasonal or thematic ones – but the classic timeless looking ones) – they are so fun to look at and tempt my budget. The truth is that I never buy them and then wish I had it when I get home. Guess how many I have? A big fat 0! I would love to use them to decorate with in my kitchen – but perhaps that would require more dusting?! Nonetheless, I would love to always be prepared for a special event – I may even use them on a non eventful day just to make my day more pretty.
Something that I just realized that I DO unconsciously collect are good quotes. I love a good saying or quote – my house is full of them. My biggest fear is that I will become complacent when walking through my house and not even notice what I have posted on my walls, etc. I love it when people quote movies, songs, or books – I take it as a sign that one is living life in the present and not just going through the motions! Here is the quote that I have come to believe in and tried to live this year especially – “When you say yes you’re ultimately saying no to something else” by, Aby Garvy.
