Everywhere I go Iām looking for treasure. Sometimes it's just a nice looking rock or radiant shell, other times I find a gold chain or wad of cash on the sidewalk. I have always had a collectors spirit and canāt help but to keep my eyes peeled at all moments for something shiny or blessed. You can get so much joy and life force from charmed objects. I can see myself ending up as the cliche eccentric person on the beach with the metal detector looking for precious objects in the sand. Your trash is probably my treasure. For example, I have a beautiful blue plastic bottle I have kept for 5-6 years and have brought all around the world with me.

š§øI went back to my parents' place for the holidays. I went through all the stuff I left there when I moved away for college and I found this forgotten treasure box from my childhood that I hadn't seen in probably like 10 years. I kept so many little objects when I was a child ( keychains, seashells, antique nails me and my brother found one day when digging in the backyard, my baby teeth, a franc coin, a drawing my sister made...) and each of them brought me back to a memory of my childhood and it made me so emotional and grateful to my younger self who was like "yes, future me will definitely need to see these."
Now I'm thinking why do we stop doing that as adults ?? I want to have my 20s treasure box full of random seemingly meaningless stuff that I can find and look into when I'm old!! And why not do one for every decade??
Will update if I start doing this - on a mission to find a cool box .

i love stuff perhaps a little too much and itās impossible for me to pick a single trinket but in general i think the stuff that i own thatās the most important to me at this point is stuff iāve gotten secondhand at estate sales vs just bought new. assigning a personal history to something older than myself, keeping things that meant something to someone else meaningful for a little while longer.
started going estate sale-ing summer after i finished college with a great friend i made at school, which feels like the start of becoming the me i am now and collecting stuff that i really intentionally wanna try and keep for the rest of my life. pictured below is a grail from my first ever estate sale: a yearbook from my school 100 years before my graduation. itās the first thing you see when you walk into my apartment, the first place i lived in alone long-term - kinda wanna keep it by every entryway as i move apartments.

šŖIf youāre a person on the go, always stay strapped with a purse treat. There will always be a moment where you need to lift your spirits or raise your energy levels. Itās also nice to have something you can share with other people that sparks joy. Iām trying really hard to work on my sugar addiction but the purse treat is something I canāt really give up. Iām like the epitome of that meme thatās like āif I donāt have a yummy treat every couple of hours my condition worsensā lol. My go-to treats are dark choc coconut bars, justinās pb cups, & barnana dark choc covered bananas š

š¼If you know anything about anythingā¦ you know that gut health is the ultimate wealth. It is literally the foundation of everything related to health and wellness. Mental health, physical health.. if you donāt have a robust gut microbiome you will be suffering somehow. I have probably taken upwards of 100 courses of antibiotics in my life which is not only insane but also super bad for you / your gut. Iāve been trying to go hard re-populating my gut with the good stuff and Bio-k is one of my favorite ways to do so. Itās expensive as fuck but itās super powerful and Iām addicted to the taste. I want them to sponsor me. The best flavor is the vegan blueberry made with rice.
