USPS is Alive and Kickin'

I love letters. 

I love the whole process.

I love buying beautiful stationery.

I love picking out the perfect pen.

I love going to the post office and asking for the book of stamps.

And Stan (the postman) brings out the notebook, and I get to pick from dozens:

Mark Twain

or 

Mother Teresa

or 

Love

or 

Reminders to take care of the earth.

{all of the above, please}

I love that letters were the first part of our love story.

Somehow letters say what phone conversations or chats over coffee

never will.

I love that my nieces are getting old enough to read and write letters. 

I figure if I send them enough letters, 

maybe someday I'll get one back.  

Do you write letters?  I suppose I should ask, Do you like getting letters?  If so, you should write them.  I have openings for pen pals.  Email me your address, and I'll send you something lovely.  {anna.v.fialka@gmail.com}
