“I would rather collect experiences and memories.”
So true but unfortunately some people do not know how to savor, recall or comprehend the nature of experience. Not unusual...my thrift store addicted wife is one of them
I have several very expensive things in the house; the kids know what they are and their value. Some sentimental pieces; the kids know their history too. All the rest can go.
I live in tornado alley. Once you accept the fact that God can turn it all to kindling in a heartbeat, stuff doesn’t matter anymore.
