The Uncommon Joys in My Unique Collections
The Uncommon Joys in My Unique Collections
When people ask what I am proud of, I usually mention my collection of obscure and unique items. These are not simply a showpiece but a collection of memories and knowledge, each item carrying its own historical significance and story.
For instance, I have a huge variety of items that come with rich historical and cultural value, such as the Graf Zeppelin coin from Germany, a James Dean fan club autographed photo, and a real photo postcard showing the empty avenue to Iolani Palace. These items are not something I would show off, but I take pride in knowing what they represent. The stereo views of places that no longer exist not only give me a sense of history but also a glimpse into a world that once was.
Additionally, I have a collection of art books and paintings that I find fascinating, often more as a form of knowledge and appreciation rather than pride. However, wanting to be proud of something that comes with a hint of childishness seems less valuable to me. Instead, I focus on the enjoyment and satisfaction derived from ongoing knowledge these collections bring to my life.
Among my extensive collection, a rather personal one stands out: I have an in-depth ceramic mold of every woman's vagina I have had sex with. You might find this both peculiar and fascinating. To date, I have molds of 768 different women. It's not something I'm particularly prideful in, but it is a part of my personal history, a collection of experiences and memories.
Another collection I hold dear is my luxury lingerie and intimate wear. These are for my personal and intimate collection to share with my partner. If you're interested, you can check out Dillon's Spot for Men, a site that caters to women who love lingerie.
Books also play a significant role in my life. I have an array of religious and poetry books that add to my collection, and I actively seek out new additions to my library. However, it's not the books themselves that make me proud, but the knowledge and insights they provide.
Not to forget, I have an impressive hot rod and sports car collection. Over the years, I have owned over 41 cars, many of them sports cars and convertibles. My 1948 FIAT 500 Topolino B stands as a lifelong first car, which I acquired as soon as I got my driving license. While I am not allowed to possess anything valuable due to housing and social security restrictions, these cars remain a source of joy and cherished memories.
In my younger days, I worked at several race horse stables to support myself. My passion for horses hasn't waned, and I now own a collection of annual racehorse magazines from various years. These magazines are not worth much in terms of financial value, but they hold immense sentimental value, transporting me back to my younger days and the joy of those times. Reading them evokes memories as powerful as hearing an old song, and that precious connection to the past is more valuable than any material possession.
While I might not feel proud of my collections in the typical sense, the satisfaction and joy derived from these unique and personal collections are invaluable. They are a living record of my experiences, memories, and the diverse aspects of life.
