Dear Friends,
There was something exciting in my childhood days,
that I will always remembered, it was when we would
walked down our one mile long gravel driveway to
check for mail.
My mother had beautiful handwriting, in her school days
penmanship was one of the most important subject to learn
and it was to be mastered as an art form.
Beatrix Potter is a favorite mine.
Sometimes in a antique store you may find some vintage letters,
the ones that are all bundled up with a ribbon or a string tied
around them. These old letters are American history, a time of
war or of days gone by. These letters were beautifully written
and even though we may not know the people who wrote
them, by the end the last letter, we feel like we know them
quite well.
If you find the time, write someone who is dear to you,
it will bring a smile to their face, as they reach into
the mailbox to find a lovely letter hand written by you.

P.S. If you haven't seen the movie of Miss Potter,
I highly recommend it! It is basic on her life.

This is such a lovely post. I do miss the handwritten letters we received before email and text messaging. Now everyone text and we don't even get to hear each other's voices most of the time. The personal touch ( human touch ) it's fading into non-existence. What a blooming shame.
ReplyDeleteAh, thank you sweet friend. Yes, no one seems to have time to write letters or even call. I love hearing someone voice..... My sister and I write each other still today. Yes, it is a shame! If someone texts me, I will call them to answer their text, LOL!
