Think week we have an intriguing mystery thanks to photographer Suzy Hazelwood at Pexels.com. Is this stack of old letters a treasured keepsake? Or perhaps it is the surprising find by those left behind after the death of a loved one? Tell me your tale in 280 characters or less and post a link in the comments, and I‘ll see you at the roundup next week. Remember, the title characters don’t count. Have fun!

        No you’re not. Perhaps with time we get less emotional about things. I did.

    I have been known to burn such things. Very true to life. Some things are easier to let go of than others.
