Memories, like old records, treasures waiting to be found. I like this and it makes me think of good memories.

I love the concept of "shopping" in an attic...With a play on words, an attic is somewhere you store either old or yet-to-be-used/unneeded items only for you to come back later and spend hours picking through various objects and remembering their value again

The attic. The final resting place for yesterday's thoughts. Deep poem.

I really love this message . . . I feel my attic contains quite a bit more than most, even not remembering a fraction of what's there.

There's an emptiness in others that are too much for us to bear, whether from sickness, old age or indifference.
