grief

my friend a says that it’s ok to grieve things as much as you grieve people.

i’m grieving my magnificent teacup collection. we had a leak in our roof, which caused the plaster in our wall to soften, and the cabinet holding all my cups to go crashing to the ground…

broken teacups

some of them were over 100 years old, some of them were rare, some of them were just cute and quirky ones that i found in shops and liked the look of…

they were all lovingly chosen, they were all precious, and they are almost all gone.

i’m sure i’ll get over it in time, but i am very sad right now…
