My family and I contributed to my grandmother’s vast collection of over 1,000 salt and pepper shakers. When she downsized, she passed it on to me.

I was honored but overwhelmed. I had to learn to let go of the sentimental value.

The collection was a patchwork of family memories. But when I moved across the country, it became a nightmare to transport.

I realized that the memories themselves were more important than the physical objects. With a heavy heart, I decided to sell most of the collection, keeping only a few pairs that held special significance.

Let your inheritance be one of love and memories, not a burden of possessions.
