    for conversation and allows us to show that we take initiative in some things.

    Absolutely true for me. Especially with younger people.

    I have the best relation in the world with my exgirlfriend, mother of my childs.

    But what if I collect to channel a bad side of me. To put in what I believe is a nice thing to do a lot of energy, a lot of anger...

    And I'd prefer a Maurice Richard auto to a lot of things, but not my childs. But one day I'll have a Maurice Richard auto.

    See then, the reasons why WE collect vary. I told you why I collect. I understand about the anger, most of the time I feel helpless in the world, doing just enough to get by. Fer pete's sake, I'm at work right now typing this..........

    My collection tho, I'm in charge of that.

    Of course this transfer is there. And this transfer come from another place, too. Time make us realise these things.

    But I also greatly collect because I so love shiny things.

    So ok, collecting is putting the energy put in a bad habbit to exist within a considered good one.

    That bad habbit came from the sudden loneliness of a separation. It was the reaction, the way to adapt.

    Are you about to equate collecting with addiction?

    If so, I'm fully with you, no jokes.
