Once that moment passes, sometimes you never get the opportunity again. The words are lost to a memory.
I have never been a person that was interested in collecting things, however for the past ten years I have collected quotes. This may be a passing comment during a conversation, an extract from a poem or even a line from a film. The quotes I have collected are written down in a small journal and I often go back and remind myself that a string of words can have a huge impact on someone.
Today I found another one to add to my collection. The comment was made during a conversation between two friends. They where discussing how thankful they both where for having each other in their lives.
"I didn't choose you, we found each other."
A simple, yet beautiful sentence. So after adding another to my collection, I thought I'd share some of my favourites with you.
