"I should like to bury something precious..."

I should like to bury something precious in every place where I’ve been happy and then, when I’m old and ugly and miserable, I could come back and dig it up and remember.
Sebastian Flyte, Brideshead Revisited
 
I like the idea (if I were sure I could remember where I buried them...)

    Not so strange - such as a time capsule tradition. Similar also to taking pictures (especailly family pictures) so you can look back and remember.
