Conscious Aging & Community Connections monthly meeting.

Object Stories

“We identify with the objects we love, we love the objects we identify with.” - Sherry Turkle

We all have them.  The cherished, resonant objects in our surroundings: Such objects hold meaning, spark memories and become grounding talismans of our life experience. Objects that distill our ideas into something concrete; we bring them along through moves and transitions as tangible evidence of who we are and who we have been.

At this month’s gathering, we invite you to choose an object that evokes important memories and/or a sense of identity for you.  Bring this item (or a picture) with you to the Conscious Aging and Community Connections event.

Everyone will tell the story of the cherished item, and what meaning it holds.  In focused story telling, we may strengthen our connections, and continue our community conversation about aging consciously, and imagining our possible futures.
