My memory box

Whenever I'm lucky enough to come across a lonely little charm while out walking, or I didn't end up throwing away my movie ticket by accident, I always place them in my memory box. My memory box is a simple little wooden box I thrifted for around $5. It smells faintly of mildew and old memories of another. Inside you can find handwritten notes, tickets to all sorts of movies, plays, and concerts, drawings, photos, handmade goods, souvenirs and so many other precious items. When I open my memory box I am reminded that sometimes even the simplest things in life, such as a paper crane from Tokyo, or a gold heart charm I found at the post office, are so beautiful and can make your day so special.
