Cassandra visited the Victoria and Albert Museum in London,
England. "A giant mausoleum of the past. Inside, she knew, were rooms and
rooms, each one full of history.
Thousands of items, out of time and place, reverberating quietly with the joys
and traumas of forgotten lives."
I think of the many, many mementoes we have - out where they
can be seen as well as stored in bins in the garage and under the bed. These
often "ordinary" items have stories that link us with the people we
love. Saving the mementoes and the stories help keep us connected with
the people we love - so they are not forgotten.
