Hey @globalBraid3744, great post (just like all other amazing threads by you). Keep up the wonderful work you do here.❤

1. Do you collect something? What is it?

Memories

2. How did you get interested in collecting this?

When I realised, moments once cherished can only stay alive in our memories.

3. Did you use to collect something else when you were a child?

I liked to collect keychains lol

How about yourself, Braid?

Hey Sun! It is nice to see you here again

Beautifully written - moments once cherished can only stay alive in our memories. Every moment passes, so I also find it important to take steps to keep in in our memory.

Keychains sound nice. I used to collect lots of things when I was a child. For example, I collected Didl images haha.

Now I collect bracelets from every destination I go to!

I collect books it seems. Because I have over 50 and haven't even read them all. Have no desire to either. I used to collect Angels, you know like figurines years ago.

Hi Braid! I don't have a formal collection of anything, but I really like to take pictures to remember memories of things I did and fun moments I had! I think I got into this when Instagram first started and I wanted to share all my moments on there. My loved ones mean the most to me so it's important I capture all our happy times together!! ❤️

This is amazing! I also like to take lots of photos to remind me of good times. The photos can sometimes bring those moments of happiness again into our lives and help us not to forget those precious moments.

@globalBraid3744 Yes! Sometimes I just like to look back and I remember all the awesome times I had with my friends and I'll send those pictures to my friends. It's really nice to reflect with them and remember all the great times we shared!

I currently collect Lego cars.

I started after seeing my mom collect Lego Harry Potter. It made us get a bit closer. And it's fun.

I used to collect horse magazine + horse.. trinkets i guess ? It was a magazine we could buy each month and was showcasing different breed. I had a lot of it. I gave it all to my younger cousin.

@MelBTheCat

This sounds interesting! Do you have to build the Lego car yourself?

I love horse riding! Can you ride as well or were horses only something you were interested in?

3. I'm still a child when I want to. Children enjoys with what they have. They don't collect. They save them to entertain themselves again when they are physically grown ups

I collect unique coins that are printed on special ocassions. I started doing it because i think they are more valuable than their printed price, and it looks great to look at. I use to collect comics when i was a kid.

Hey, when i was a kid of around 10 years old, i used to collect the stamps and currency of different countries. I used to ask my relatives to bring me stamps and currency from different nations they had been traveling... Haha...

Ummm... I still collect something but it's really very weird... Haha... So now in my 20s... I collect the napkins of different outlets, i order food from or i go to dine in...

Lots of love and affection.... 🌻❤️🌻

Stamps and coins were so popular to collect. I always like to see different currencies, some of them look very pretty. My favorites are Kenyan ones that have animals on them.

I think it is nice to collect napkins from places you ordered food from - it is like collecting memories.

True... They look pretty. Especially the ones with different colors for different denominations...

Haha.. actually I'm a big foodie.. so that is kind of a driving force for me for collecting the napkins to keep the memories...

I'd say I am a collector of coins since I always forgot to use them when I shop

I can relate to that! The small coins are easy to miss

@Kyle001, do you collect quarters with states on the back, instead of just the eagle?? If your in the US… Have you ever counted your coins , and see if it added up to a certain amount, to get something you may enjoy? Or just collect them for the collection.
