Love me some mail! I'm a fan!

There are so many different
kinds. I remember in Mexico
that telegrams were a prime
choice. Ever so fun to get them.

I'm particularly enamored with
post cards as those of you who
get my x-mas cards remember.
My grandmothers shared with me
that post cards were the most popular
during WWII. They were just plain
cards, no pics and were often written
in pencil. Both of them remarked on
how often the lettering was small so
as to share more information.

My prima hermana chooses to send
cards rather than gifts. She peruses
cards by the hour, taking great care
in her choices. It really matters to
her to make the card match both the
event and the person she's sending
it to. Special cards are also easy to
keep as they don't take up much
room.

In today's modern world we have
e-cards and e-mail along with a
plethora of other devices. I would
confess that I'm in love with both
as they can be written and sent at
any hour of the day or night.

Perhaps the bottom line is . . .
communication. We all like to stay
in touch. Let's reach out no matter
the method of preference.

pray send me a card
in the middle of nowhere
communication
