A home without books is a body without soul. - Cicero

The thing about unpacking...

...is that you find things you forgot about. Pictures of happier times, a wedding card, an anniversay card from long ago.

Our marriage license.

Detrius of a life together.

What does one do with these things? It feels wrong to throw them out, but at the same time, I can't place our framed family photographs around this new home when the picture of our family is different now.

I suppose I will pack them away for now. They'll surface again, though.

Maybe next time I unpack them, I'll know what to do with them.
