construere

I am a collector. A collector of little pieces of gems that are insignificant to many, but invaluable to me.

I collect words. Words of people close to me, mere acquaintances, and even those unknown. Criticisms, encouragements, prophecies; I gather and store them in my heart.

I treasure my collection, knowing these are more than just little fragments of stones. These gemstones, are promises.
