There were love letters from my past, and notes and letters between myself and my grandfather, otherwise known as my Papa. And those remain among my most precious possessions today. I think of letter writing has a tender act of giving because it requires us to slow down. And that can be hard in these hurried times.<br />Leslie ( Gwen Moss)Leslie Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06367872267145012395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1077664349053649627.post-8384289179359574672013-01-19T20:02:29.571-08:002013-01-19T20:02:29.571-08:00Well...

I have to admit that I rely on the speedy delivery of email almost exclusively these days, but your post is encouraging me to write a few more cards to people whose life might really be touched by my reaching out. I think Valentine's Day is a good time to send out my love to some of the sweet widows at our church, so I'm challenging myself and my Bible study group to take that on as a project.

Gina and I used to write back and forth all the time and there was nothing better than getting a card or letter in the mail. If I do anything by mail now it is more than likely a card. I really have to be in the mood to write ~ even an email these days it seems. Enjoy your warmer weather ~ it is freezing here today. xoLorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00933214618325580791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1077664349053649627.post-2682782464701706282013-01-16T13:55:13.267-08:002013-01-16T13:55:13.267-08:00Dear Cathi,

I loved getting a letter from them and always thought that a life in America/Canada was SO different from mine and sounded far more exciting although it probably wasn't. I, too, lost contact with them but, my sister had a penfriend in Atlanta and started writing to her when she was 11 and she still writes to her and they have met up many times. I still write letters only not that often but it's still exciting to see one fall through the letterbox.<br />Enjoy your weather .....it's FREEZING over here !!!!

How special! As for letter writing...I was the Queen of the Letter writers for years...I loved to write and to receive and loved having a full mailbox from all over the world. Sadly, it's fallen to the wayside as even the one person I'm closest to who started as a pen pal 22 years ago, I'm in touch with through email and skyping. And I find it harder to hold a pen for any length of time to get my thoughts down.
