BLENKO Collecting - A Positive Addiction

We all tease that Blenko loves Blenko, and no one has just ONE Blenko item. We also proclaim that we are Blenko addicts. A wise man sent the following advice to me:

To stop? Then get off, walk away, don’t look back. It takes determination and a calculating purposefulness to bring something to an end once it has gained an important role in your life. We become addicted to the experience.
If you can spend a month without saying the word “Blenko” then there is a good chance you are free.

Collecting Blenko like 'running' can be addictive. We think these are POSITIVE ADDICTIONS. Dr. Security Coluym states not all addictions are negative. A number of addictions are not only positive but enhance life.
Blenko can certainly be counted among the positive addictions - your knowledge of WV history, WV glass, and your confidence grow with the collection. Happy Collecting! hjh
