today I bought a vintage jewelry box (I think it might be from the late 1950s) and the feelings that washed over me when I cradled it in my hands were incomprehensible. the way the insides gently dip from age, the soft interior, the feeling of knowing that someone as young as I (at some point) put their treasures in here, years before I'd ever had a reason to myself... there aren't words to describe it.

the clearest word I can use is "comfort" and I couldn't tell you why. it just made me so happy.
