My feelings exactly, but unlike you, aMAZEing adventure frog, I'm no longer active in LTCs.
I'd like to know what the general concensus is about giving away LTCs that were part of trades, swaps and trackers from 9 years ago. I am torn between leaving my 3 thick binders sitting on the shelf vs passing them on to others who would also enjoy them. They are all wonderful pieces of artwork that I greatly enjoyed receiving, but I'm not doing them any justice by allowing them to sit unopened (well, maybe once a year I do look through them!) yet I don't want to hurt any of the donors' feelings by not keeping them...
Thoughts please.....

I might look through my scrapbooks and photo albums only once a year, but I am going to keep them, for the memories, and to remind me of things that happened in my life. They keep my memories fresh.
If they make you smile and remember and appreciate the others' efforts, then you should be able to keep them. The justice you give them is your appreciation of them. Even if you enjoy them only once a year, then you should be able to keep them. If you had fun collecting them, and it makes you feel good to look at them, keep them.
After saying all of that, my opinion is that you should keep them.

Very well said, BetsyLee - thank you! I do still enjoy looking at them, so I guess I'm not ready to part with them.
