If you collect things thinking that they’re going to amass value or one day become worth something, you miss out on the potential to feel value now. Collect things that make you smile and feel nostalgic.
Collect memories, and items that are incredibly personal and meaningful to you specifically. Collect over a long period of time so you can continue to feel joy and excitement when you find another treasure.
So collect plush Scooby Doo blankets from the early 2000s, and smile to yourself when you pull one out on a cold day. Collect silly and impractical mugs, and laugh with your friends when you serve them warm tea. Collect little match boxes from your favorite local places even though you don’t smoke.
When you collect something you love, it’s like filling your space with love, and in turn, loving yourself.

Even if theyre meaningless things like ordinary rocks or spare coins. Collect receipts, stuffed animals, jewelry, beads, marbles, crystals, stickers, pins, buttons, bottles, shoes, small toys, literally anything you enjoy. Create a collection of things that make you happy its honestly so fun.

Having a collection of a specific item a fun and rewarding pastime that gives you something to buy as a souvenir when you're abroad instead of some tacky gift shop garbo, but more importantly, it gives people more opportunities to give you gifts. I collect vintage Playboys (sex appeal), crystals (not for the mysticism, I just like geology), and hands (glass, wooden, pendants, etc). Now when people find one of these items, they will think of me and get it for me as a gift. Create as many opportunities to receive gifts as possible, as it's many people's love language. They won't be so embarrassed to gift if they can play it off like they're just adding to your very important collection. Cultivate opportunities for love to grow.

You don’t need to suffer to prove that you’re a good person. You don’t have to stay with the job that makes you question yourself and you don’t have to keep dating that person you’re not quite clicking with. If something feels off then it probably is. I’m not advocating for immediately abandoning your responsibilities and throwing caution to the wind; but in our hearts we know when something is working and when it isn’t.
That thing called intuition is your soul, and you can trust it.

If you’re unsure what something means, like, learn! Aquire full context of what words mean, because then you can improve your vocabulary, and know more!
Knowledge is power!!

There’s just something really energizing knowing that me, Megan Fox, and the Late Elizabeth II share something moderately specific.
