Goal for the Day: Rescue Something Rare

Sundays are an excellent day to visit local antique shops and galleries. Take some time to really look around. You’ll be surprised what you might find. Today, make a point to go out and find an exceptional antique piece and give it a new, loving home.


Collecting antiques links us to our history and our culture. By bringing home an antique item that someone else has discarded, you’re doing your part to preserve a small portion of our past. Looking behind us is the best way to have a clear picture of what’s ahead of us. History certainly does repeat itself. And, the objects which were cherished by other people can teach us a lot when we rescue them and cherish them ourselves.
