I must admit, of all of the things I collect, it all has started out with a gift from a friend.....and I liked it so much, I began to collect it. It is as though a trigger in my brain goes off, and I notice the object ... and then maybe the next year, I get another of the same from the same person.... and wammo. I am collecting it. I don't think I have ever started collecting things as an original thought. Hey, that sounds like I need a little time on "the couch".... Sounds as though I am being lead around by my ear.......or eyes..... but not making decisions on my own? Oh well, I happen to like what I have collected......so far........

I am sure there is a great deal of psychology to this habit......

Oh well.
