So I say enjoy everything while you can, or someone else will when you are gone... |
I second that.... sometimes when I would go to an estate sale & see all the personal belonging being sold by the relatives I couldn't help but wonder if some of those things where "special" to them & now there not....what's the point of having it if it's stored away never to be seen or used.... maybe we're afraid something will happen to it ....
My mother has the Psalm 23 " The Lord is My Shepard " verse that is about 6 x 8 ft. hand crochet by my Grandmother put away in the attic....I think it's sad that it's hidden away because she doesn't want anything to happen to it....it's probably being made into mice nests as we speak....
