Catherine: That is a wonderful idea!
You can have mementos that aren’t clutter. There’s a balance.
I agree - there is a balance. I have an item or two from a person or two for sentimental/memories sake, but not someone's whole house! I know my kids don't want my stuff - *I* don't even want most of my stuff any more! (Yes. i'm working to get rid of it - LOL)
And I sort of agree with IL - I don't "need" to be remembered into the future by anyone. I'm not looking to "make my mark" on the world in any grandiose manner. If someone remembers me at all, I hope it is because I was kind to them in some way that may have made a difference to them. Even if it was just to make them smile or laugh or something just as fleeting.
To give pleasure to a single heart by a single act is better than a thousand heads bowing in prayer." Mahatma Gandhi
Be nice whenever possible. It's always possible. HH Dalai Lama
In a world where you can be anything - be kind. Unknown
