"Letter Writing is the only device for combining solitude with good company." -Lord Byron When did everyone stop corresponding through the mail? I never received the memo. I have to be honest and admit that I rely on emailing and texting as much as the other person, but there is something very upsetting and impersonal about our means of communication. A hand written note is much more meaningful to receive than a text message or a phone call. I think the main reason for this is that writing a card requires more energy, thought, and money.
I actually prefer to communicate to friends and family members through cards (when time allows)! One of my favorite things to do on my lunch break is go to local card stores and search for the perfect card for the perfect person. I try to select cards that I know the other person would like, even if I do not like it myself.
So, the next time you want to call or text someone to wish them a happy birthday or thank them for something, think about sending them a handwritten letter instead. I know they will be thrilled to receive something other than bills in the mail ,and the United States Postal Service will appreciate it as well!
Caspari stationary has been around since the dark ages, but they are still tried and true in my book. They have timeless cards that are great for all genders and ages! Caspari stationary can be found at most stationary stores throughout the country.
Love, Lili
