If I want to really show someone they are special. I would take the time to write a letter.

When do you need it?

I just sent off a letter by US Mail yesterday. ?

I used to love writing letters. Of course, that was before the internet. Occasionally I'll still write one.

I send them a few times a year to my daughter in MN, and her kids get notes from me too.

"Everyone loves getting a letter in the mail," my daughter Claire, 28, said last month.

Claire saves my letters. Love the touching, heartfelt notes Claire writes in my birthday and Mother's Day cards. I save her cards and letter, too.

"I am a sentimental person," Claire told me last week. "I must have gotten it from you."

The last letter I wrote was to my uncle, several weeks before he died.
I knew he didn't have much time left, and I wanted him to know what he
meant to me.
Sure, texting, calling, and emailing, are much faster and easier, but actually
taking the time to put pen to paper and literally spell out the words you're
choosing to convey whatever feelings you're trying to express, is FAR more
intimate and indicative of the depth of regard you have for the recipient.

Sometimes we will let emotions flow through the pen to paper, saying what we would never say in any other medium.

People are always genuinely impressed by a hand written letter. It never fails and it’s so easy.

I will still send greeting and thank you with a little note.

I occasionally write snail mail letters. It really depends on the preference of the intended recipient.

I write to prisoners, it's a great way to build relationship and can make all the difference to their time inside. I have been corresponding for years with various political prisoners. It also feels so good when you get a letter back in the mail.

My mum and I have a greatness for movies, and so many Cable shows like Game of Thrones, Dexter, westworld. just to name a few. I love when my mum turns me onto some old classics, and she loves to beturned onto some newer stuff that she might never heard of.

But to the point of this post, we use Use quite often to send each other Disks of movies to each other.

It makes an impact, precisely because nobody does it anymore. It takes more effort than firing off an email so it is now a way of saying you value the communication enough to make that effort.
