A few cents a day actually makes a lot of sense

While checking my coin box this morning, I came to the sudden realization that it was overflowing with money. It wasn't too long ago that I just cleared it out and it is again spilling at the brim with loose change.



I must admit I was pleasantly surprised. For the past six months since I cleared out the last batch, I have been throwing all my daily loose change into this box. And voila! More than $600 in coins. It's amazing what a few dollars or cents each day can do over time.



Don't you think they look simply fantastic? Nothing beats the awesome feeling of solid metal currency. It seems to trigger some primitive genetic memory that stretches all the way back to the days when shells were used. Posted by Picasa

I loved your poetry or short stories. I don't know if you would be interested in looking at my blogspot. But you could check it out if you like.

In Singapore, is it poetry like that appreciated there? I know in The US it can be but it's not always. Thanks for writing it really helped me.
So long for now,
