Have you ever experienced the fun of opening your mailbox and your heart skips a beat??? There amongst the bills and
junk mail is a letter!
Ah, the joy of receiving a hand-written letter! Oftentimes, letters are much better than a telephone call or an e-mail.
I think that’s because you appreciate a letter. It means someone took the time to sit down and write their thoughts
on paper.
Letters make life slow down a little bit. The quiet time it takes to write a real letter is an hour that nourishes your
own soul. It’s sort of like cooking. When you choose a recipe, you are creating something from scratch. You may even
add a few extra touches to make the letter special — photos, cheerful stickers, a newspaper clipping or a surprise tucked
inside
Has letter writing become a lost art? Have e-mail and blogs replaced the old-fashioned letter? Are people too busy to sit
down, gather their thoughts and compose a letter? Or perhaps people have forgotten how to use their good penmanship skills?!
Whatever the reason, writing letters shouldn’t be lost to computers, cell phones and the hurry-scurry of life.
Letters from the heart will help you write that love letter, send a note from Santa or Cupid, or send a note of inspiration
or condolences to special friends who deserve more than an email or a text.
