   Here's a reprint of a story published January 1, 2004:   
    Hi! I enjoy your newsletter so much! This morning one of your   
   stories made me think....  I collected "everything" for years! Had a house   
   full!  Things given to me & others that I bought when we were out & about.    
   One day a young friend brought her new baby over to visit me & she had a fit   
   over all my Fiesta....she had been buying a little piece here & there and her   
   family was giving it to her as gifts!  She had loved Fiesta for a long time &   
   hoped someday to have a wonderful collection! So that day I felt like I should   
   give her my pieces!  Why wait until I'm gone...that could be years!  My only   
   stipulation was that she enjoy them, use them & pass something of hers on to   
   someone who will enjoy it.  Since that time I've given away hundreds of   
   things....it seems I always find more!  Instead of waiting until I'm gone I   
   get the enjoyment of seeing everyone enjoy the things now!  And everyone knows   
   that unless they REALLY want something not to mention it to me....because it   
   will   
   be theirs!  I don't miss those things!  I get so much pleasure knowing that   
   they are so valued & loved by someone ho can enjoy them NOW!...  Janet
