What will you put in your shadow/memory box?

I recently spent a few days living in a New England based Continuing Care Retirement Community while visiting my mother. While doing my morning run in the hallways (the exercise room was closed because of construction!) I spent a lot of time looking at the personalized, outside of the room decorations and shadow or memory boxes in the hallways. They were generally themed and well thought out. These personalized areas made me think about the difficult decision of what to put outside one's room or in one's “shadow box” or “memory box” to help us identify that room as our own and to best reflect who we are as we downsize into a new stage in life.
