Artifact of Bygone Days
I grew up in the era of letter writing. Pen to paper. Stamp to envelope. Letter to post office.
This was an actual form of communication. And in many cases the only form of communication.
A time when a person might even seek out something called a pen pal. Or maybe that was just me.
Letter writing gave meaning to the ordinary details of life. School. Family. Pets. A favorite book.
The idea sounds archaic today. Or like something out of a foreign film. Or maybe from a time when walking 5 miles to school through the snow was a real thing.
I admit that I was probably more into it than most people. The letter writing that is.
None of us knew that the internet was just around the corner. That life would change as we knew it.
Letters becoming an antiquated relic of the past. Like typewriters. VCR’s. Fax machines.
But there are still times when mailing or hand-delivering a card might be relevant. Birthdays. Showers. Mother’s Day.
If you ever find yourself in such a predicament might I suggest a few of the following. Or click here to see more.
And if you are interested in receiving a card. Mailed to you personally. Stamp on envelope.
