What shows
how little
we know?
What can be is
oft far less than
what we expect.
What is now
has never been
what it was.

Three letters from across this globe on the same day, and suddenly the planet seems a little smaller.
And closer.
That’s what a letter does; it removes physical distance. More so, especially in these isolating times.
Then there is the element of surprise. You always smile when you find personal correspondence in your mailbox (at least I do).
If you want to brighten someone’s day, from faraway, send a letter.
It’s simple, yet says so much.
It’s civil.
It is sincere.
Thank you.

A moment from afar, stamped and delivered with your name on it.
