They do take up a lot of space. But then I remind myself how thrilled I am simply by having my great-grandmother's scrapbook in my possession. Imagine a lifetime of journals! What a treasure our family would have had! Sure a lot of it isn't interesting to read; but it's enlightening nevertheless. For instance, I thought my youngest son was a bit of a drama queen. Where did he get that from, I wondered? Till I read a letter I wrote at age 16 or 17; and now, when I look back into that particular year I see he comes by it honestly ... and will grow out of it, as I like to believe I have.

One of my friends goes through these phases where she throws out of all her old diaries/journals. I clutch my chest every time she does that! I could never toss all of my old written memories. No matter how embarrassing or painful to read they might be.<br /><br />Also -- we both used "anthropomorphic" in our blogs today.
