I Believe In // Snail Mail

I am the first person to admit I love technology - it's super convenient and puts anything I could ever want at my fingertips. Long gone are the days when I have to call someone's house phone or wait for them to magically appear on AIM to make plans (remember that?!). And to top it off, group messages are in my opinion one of the best inventions - endless entertainment. 

As much as I'm a fan of technology, there are few things better then receiving a handwritten note or card in the mail. They are like little mailbox treasures, amongst all of the bills and junk. And to me, what makes them so precious is knowing the person took time to sit down and write it - it's so easy to shoot off a quick text, but writing a letter takes considerable more time and thought. I was reminded of  this yesterday when I received a letter from a dear friend in Oregon, and have been thinking since of who I can send some love to via snail mail.

  1. Oh I completely agree, although I must admit that technology has taken over my world. My emails and letters are now typed, but they were better when they were handwritten.
