Good evening, @bluemoon :)
You know, I loved this post! The story behind it and the connection with this musician, Sorin (I assume we will still hear about him from your posts) and your intro, why this post fits here. And it does, indeed, as you keep this violin as a memento of the friendship and what collectors do? Keep items that have some meaning to them, could be even just emotional value but it is a special object that is kept for years and which reminds us about a person or a moment in our life. Thank you for your contribution, I knew creativity would work in this community 😇
PS - It seems that Sorin practised a lot :D
PPS - How great you have a photo where your son and Sorin appear!
Hello, @mipiano!
Thank you for the more than warm welcome you gave me! I've been shallow so far about this collecting thing. I thought of them as people who just have a desire... to collect more objects, usually with certain themes.
Thanks to this community and the posts here I have started to look more closely around the house and have seen how many items are collected, not explicitly desired to be a collection, but many have the same function. It is not necessarily necessary in the home, they are more decorative and emotionally charged.
Especially now when I already feel a saturation of the themes I've written for. I see a new perspective has opened up for new blogs and I'm glad for that.
Thank you again and I'm looking forward to writing about the dear objects that sit in different places in my home. Of course, I will only write if I feel I won't bore the reader.
Of course, I will also write about Sorin and my friends who sang or still sing, but in your other community, the one with "Q".
