Places like Value Village always leave me with mixed emotions. As soon as I walk in, I feel a rush of excitement. There’s an eclectic assortment of items, many of them surprisingly decent and offered at affordable prices. But in the end, I always feel a bit sentimental.

Waiting is standing by the door at midnight, the porch light trembling in the hush of the night, knowing that if footsteps ever break the silence, they may not belong to the one you long for

People come in different flavours — some smooth, some strong, some best in small doses — but in the end, it’s the one that warms your soul that matters most
