"When I find that that one missing piece of my collection that i have been searching forever for and it finally comes in the mail, its like opening my first pack of baseball cards all over again. I feel like all the stresses of being an adult goes away for a brief moment and I am in my own little world with these pieces of American history."
Good points. I especially like the part about losing stress. Life is so full of demands and responsibilities that it's nice to be able to unwind now and then. Collecting does that for me; it really opens up another world - a world of relief from those mundane stresses.
