I'm very crazy, collecting old things. My house looks like a museum. I have hundreds of years old inherited furniture, old brass lamps, religious books written on palm leaves, watches, pictures, art works etc. Do you have such a hobby? what is your hobby?

Sorry, I'm commenting so late. I think we should not throw away things like old watches, coins, furniture etc. They all get some value as time passes. It is not money but the value that adds as it gets older. Our children or grandchildren may find it amazing to have such old collections. happy

i like to collect coins of different countries, i have along 200 plus coins of different countries..
I love to collect coins.. and show those coins to all my friends..

My mother had this habit of collecting coins along with other things. happyMy brother got the coin collection, and some other things I inherited. Keeping the old books and furniture without getting spoiled is not that easy. Still I consider these very valuable which I can hand over to my children.

Hello my friend tingtong Ji,
Well, my hubby will coincide with your hobby. He never throws anything. He has big collections of all letters, letters written by me have special folders and he does read and re-read them. We have a wodden box more than 150 yrs old, an a box belonging my FIL about 100 yrs old. Recently I posted our 40 yrs back photograph,which we took after our marriage. He has his own bike some 40 yrs old.
He keeps maintaining as well.
May God bless You and havea great time.thumbup

Hi, I saw that photograph and commented on it. You both look very cute in that picture. Those letter as a collection sounds wonderful. I too have kept all our old letters. Those were the days of letters which we can preserve, unlike the telephone calls of today. But what I wonder is if we die one fine morning and what our children may do with our letters? Will they read them?lol


myLot reputation of 87/100. maygodblessu44 (3479)  3 years ago

Hello my friend tingtong Ji,
So nice of you for making encouraging comments on our 'Then Photograph'. Regarding your doubt about children doing soething with our letters, I do not think so, as now-a-days children do not have time to write letters even in proper way as taught. They are reduced to only 'Hi'. But I remeber, my hubby analayes all letters written by is sister and underlined the raesons for her pre=matured death. At times, such collections do carry lot of weight.
May God bless You and ahve a great time. thumbup
