Yesterday I saw on a TV program that the wife has kept in a box various kinds of things in memory of their love, such as first flight tickets, first gifts, etc. She stores all the texts in computer, from her spouse, a famous singer, and some taken down in writing, which she thinks more romantic.

I purchased a memory box several years ago. It was too small and now I have a second one. The only thing I have in them are the cards my husband and I have sent to each other throughout the years, including cards attached to flowers. There really isn't anything else to put in there. A poem I wrote for him is framed and on the wall, as is another project I made for him (words cut from magazines and newspapers that describe him all pasted around a small photo of him). We haven't gone to very many events together. In fact, I can think of only one ticket stub to put in that box (and now I will) and that's a Brad Paisley concert.

Of couse I will keep thing in memory of your love. Memory is a good thing in life, when you have a rest from your hard work, and get the memory, just like open a old book, and all the story select by yourself. It like your see or do that good thing again.

My father passed away three years ago. My mother started going through his stuff, and then when she prepared to sell the house they were in for 42 years. She found little poems and love notes, even telegrams he sent before they were married and he was in the Air Force. The telegrams she gave to me and I treasure them. I think it is fantastic too look back at stuff like that.

Some people are very passionate about trivial things for the sake of remembrance. For me I have no interest to keep junks that is only forming a nest of clutters in my cupboard. Any pass memories of the bygone days will only flood me with pain that can never be erased from my memories. For me I'll let bygone be bygone and am not going to dwell on the past. Forget the past, take care of today and let tomorrow take care of itself.

Forget the bitter past, take care of today in a positive attitude, to enjoy tomorrow hopefully turning for the better. Take care, and enjoy ourselves. Thanks for responding.

Yeah! I treasure everything that concerns with my love, such as the letters between us. I think they're so important to me and my girlfriend treasure them either. I even store the clothes that she bought me when my birthday.Do you think I am so excessive? Maybe. As an old saying,love me love my dog!
