Worthy Communication

 


I don’t always consider the journey when sending you a letter, my thoughts on paper, the envelope and postage crossing rivers, mountains and time zones.  Making its way through temperature changes and being handed from carrier to carrier, knowing very well that by the time you receive it, things may have changed, or something along the way could have altered its course, sending it into untold adventures.

Still, there’s something about having an actual letter as opposed to email.  A electronic message has no depth or feeling.  It seems cold and impersonal, while holding a letter, even long after it has been received keeps a connection that lasts a lifetime.

Even the well-traveled envelope carries a message of its own.  It shows a history and adds to the story out beyond the margins.
