Letter writing

We all receive mail in the post whether you're young or old however the joy of receiving mail has been eliminated by the sight of a spam and bill filled post box with no glimmer of joy save for some money saving coupons and birthday cards from distant relatives. Writing a letter to some one shows that you care about them and that you have sat down and taken the time to think about the things you would like to say to a person because they matter that much to you. In a world where technology is advancing and we crave instant gratification, traditional letter writing has become a thing of the past. Famous scientists and poets and writers used this form of mail as well as kings and queens, so we can definitely do it. We are literate and capable and the excitement and sentiment of receiving a letter from a secret admirer or a long lost friend is definitely a nostalgic, sentimental and more emotional experience. We attach important memories to these pieces of paper with words on them, they are tangible and saveable and unlike an email, something we may save for a rainy day. It is in this way that I would like to begin an initiative which encourages the writing of letters, I am yet to find a brand to jump on board.
