I have a serious detachment from material things, but hearing other’s stories helps me to understand the value of çherished family heirlooms.

IMO...there's a huge difference between just material things...and family heirlooms. :)

Hope your Christmas was wonderful!!

Yes, but when I was much younger I didn’t understand my detachment problem or the value of sentiment others could have for things. But I see I have one sister who is totally detached also.

It makes me sad when I think of the disrespect I had for even my children’s things because I had no thing that meant anything to me.

I’m learning though, and the Lord is helping restore those years the locusts have eaten!
