i was reading the other day and ran across something about victorian times that i didn't know ... people were not the most monogamous during these times and were usually married and had lovers on the side...as a sign of affection for their true loves, that they happen to have found post-matrimony; they would carry with them a drawing of a body part of their lover... an eye, the lips...you get the idea...because it was not a full picture and was usually kept in a locket or something like this they did not worry that anyone would figure out who that eye belonged to....only the lovers knew it belonged to each other ... i am thinking about drawing my true love's eye and carrying it with me...or maybe my favorite facial feature, the lower lip ... hmmmmm, how victorian of me...lol
