Sunday Scribblings – 7/25/10

Letter

Although most people use email or text messaging these days (as do I), I still enjoy receiving actual letters in the mail from friends and family.  I like the element of surprise, that thrill you get when you see something with your name on it.  I also enjoy the physical part, holding it in your hands and looking at the other person’s handwriting (if they did hand-write the letter).  I don’t really send or receive letters too often, except from or to a few people.  We may live in an era of technology, but nothing can replace a good old-fashioned letter.  They look a lot nicer than a text, and you can keep them forever.
