Recent Musings. . .

There’s nothing more fun than finding a box in your stuff and opening it to discover some little treasure you’d long forgotten. This recently happened to me when my cat knocked a storage box off a top shelf in our closet and out tumbled another box in which I found our collection of cats’ whiskers. It’s always a surprise to discover what you’d hidden in them, what was worth preserving that was obviously not going to make it through your life without a box to hold it. And even if you rarely look in them, when you do you feel like you’re getting a new gift every time, until you put it away only to be overjoyed by it years from now. After all, it’s the tiny things we find that remind us how once we treasured the simplest things.
