~ Lydia M. Child
The word
"souvenir" comes from the French "to remember." And indeed that is what people do when they
bring us souvenirs -- they have remembered us on their trip.
My lovely
friend recently returned from a family vacation in Europe and she brought me
several souvenirs. I was touched that
she thought of me and that she selected items that would be especially
meaningful. We all know that it can be a
burden to squeeze additional items in our suitcases. It is very nice to be remembered.
