Everyday Writing Museum

If I were to make a museum of everyday writing I would include anything and everything about love. A child’s first love note, a letter written after an awful breakup, or even a letter written by a mother to her daughter before she goes of f to college. To me love is a very beautiful and complicated thing. Everyone experiences it and it’s different for every person. That is why I find so intriguing. When you read someone’s love note you have no idea where it is going to go. Everything about love is a mystery. In my museum, people would have a chance to think about how these two people work together. They could come up with a story, much like we did for our first case study. Who doesn’t like love stories anyway? Being able to read someone’s love note from the 50s would give people insight into how relationships were done as opposed to now. My museum would be like a relationship time capsule. There would be a room on young love where all love letters would be stored. There would be a room for messy breakups, because everyone loves a little drama, even if they say they don’t. And, of course, I want to add a room on family relationships. A lot of the times when people hear the word “love” they automatically think about a romantic relationship. My museum would also put letters, notes, and journals about family relationships on display, particularly those that depict unconditional love from a parent to a child.
