QotD: Cards & Letters
What do you do with the cards and letters you receive? Do you keep them all, just keep the photos, throw them away?

Well, I never like to throw items away that express sentiments. People usually take the time to write something to me, so I find a place to keep it... I always tell myself that some time in my life I'll look back on these cards and reminisce. I haven't yet because I'm still afraid that all sorts of emotions will rush back and I'll feel like burying myself under the covers. The day that I have the desire to do that, I will. I take old shoe boxes and decorate them and then place my old letters, cards, journals, and pictures in them. I think I have two of them right now and they are overflowing. I really value letters especially because so much can be expressed in the written word. Especially love and a lot of the letters I've received, whether they be from friends or former boyfriends, have been filled with love. I treasure that.
