Bits of Yesterday

She said she never sold entire sets of things or complete objects.  According to her - the things she sold had an intrinsic beauty.  They were things found in the broken pieces of yesterday.  Things that had gotten detached from what they once were she found to be more exciting, like scraps of time snagged on something and left there unnoticed for years, or pieces of someone's long-ago dream - perhaps in the light of day seeming just a little cracked.

She had a unique perspective and when you walked through her antique shop you could not only see it but you could feel it as well.

 

 

 

 

 

 I could be wrong but I believe when you leave her shop a small piece of you remains behind.
